Diagnosed with sarcoma? Let's share

I am also being treated by Dr Attia at Jacksonville for UPS (undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma). I was diagnosed 2 years ago and have been through radiation and surgery (at another hospital) and now on my second type of chemo with Mayo. UPS first appeared in my left calf and I had to have the soleus muscle removed. It has since metastasized in the lungs, but the treatment I am receiving now seems to be keeping it small, and not spreading. I choose to remain hopeful and busy. 😁

Welcome, @fasthealer. There are a few members talking about UPS here:

What type of chemo are you now on and how frequently? Do you have to travel far to get chemo treatments?
