Hello @william2022 and welcome to Mayo Connect. I so appreciate you sharing your journey with liposarcoma. It is very encouraging to hear about your successful treatment. I'm sure you are relieved to know that the suspicious mass, removed last month was benign.

Is the lower back pain a result of the liposarcoma surgery?

Hello Teresa (@hopeful33250) and thank you for your kind note. Yes the biopsy coming back benign was a big relief!

My back problem has been part of my journey for many years. When my primary and I discussed the possibility of surgery to relieve the pain he immediately sent me over to Mayo Rochester. Dr. Khanderia had been chairman of the Cardiology department for 25 years so he knows the great skill level at Mayo intimately and I feel very fortunate to have him now as my primary care provider at Advocate Aurora Global and executive health department.

Mayo has been very helpful in managing the progress and pain over the last 4 years. I am thrilled to have Mayo as part of my health delivery system -- absolutely extraordinary!!

William
