I have Lipo sarcomas in chest/ shoulder area. I have had 8 surgeries, 3 cryoblations and radiation. The first surgery was in 1988. Since the mid 1990’s I have been a Mayo Rochester patient. Presently I have a large mass on my brachial plexus. My oncology surgeon says the only way to stop this slow growing tumor is a quarter amputation of my arm/ shoulder. This would drastically change my life style. I am 77 years of age very independent and an active bike rider. My prayer is for continued slow growth. I am currently on a trial with Ibrance and have been taking it for 2 years. The masses have not shrunk and recently showed some growth. Positive attitude and trust in my team at Mayo has allowed me to remain positive and live life to the fullest.
