Diagnosed with sarcoma? Let's share

I discovered a small lump on my back around my shoulder blade last spring. I was diagnosed with small cell sarcoma and had surgeries to get clean margins and reconstruction from April-July 2018. I also had chemotherapy from Aug-Dec 2018, because scans revealed nodules in my lungs. Chemo reduced most of them, but one has enlarged since my last infusion. I am scheduled for radiation in a few weeks. My sarcoma is very rare, although may be similar to Ewing’s. Love to hear if anyone wants to share.

Vivian, @suzanneb's husband also had a Ewing's-like sarcoma.

Vivian, Suzanne, @kristennursepatient @suzanneb @zaruhi and @erikahamilton, I'd like to suggest that one of you start a new discussion specifically about Ewing's sarcoma. What do you think?
