My Pleomorphic Liposarcoma presented itself just off of my spine, between the shoulder blades. It grew very quickly and unfortunately it took five weeks to get the diagnoses. I was in Florida when diagnosed and I wasn’t comfortable with the plan they had for it’s removal. I contacted my primary in Mankato, Mn. and I was quickly referred me to Rochester Mayo. Within one day they had a plan and surgery was performed to remove the tumor. Following the surgery it took ten weeks to healing the site before radiation and chemo could be performed. I was fortunate that it presented itself where it did. It was visible early and only minimally attached itself to the muscles in my back. It will be a journey , but believe me, you are in the right place! Mayo is the absolute best in my mind. I wish you good fortune in your journey. You can trust this institution!
