Hi @amyqueenof4, welcome. As you likely already know, angiosarcoma is quite rare. I’m tagging fellow members @grizz20 @crackerjack @mermaid7272 @brinys, who have experience with angiosarcoma either as a patient or caregiver, like you.

I know that angiosarcoma can start anywhere in the body. Where did it appear for your fiancé? What treatments has he had?

It appeared on top of his bladder and grew up to 7cm- he had taxitol and radiation and for two months he was remission. Then 3 months ago his lung collapsed bc he was bleeding in his plura cavity. He was on a chest tube for over a month with two surgeries to get the bleeding to stop- they even tried blood clotting meds. Now they currently have him on taxotere with gemzare (Not sure of spelling) and the doctors at standford have never seen angiosarcoma do this.
