Diagnosed with Uterine Cancer (Leiomyosarcoma)

Yes I had leiomyosarcoma ...there was a very small bump above my knee. looked it up on internet and because I met all the criteria (female over 50) I knew immediately what it was.
Went to Dr. and he suggested that I have radiation before I have it surgically removed. He said it is best to do it that way as you want to kill off the small fingerlings surrounding the tumor before you remove it.
I had it removed in 2018. Since then I have had follow up scans and no return of the cancer.
He was the best doctor and so grateful God led me to him.
He has now retired.

You are so lucky. Mine returns every year. But it is a stage 4. God is good!

Thank you for your response. I hope I’m as lucky as you. My dr. Doesn’t specialize in LMS so he’s given me the choice of radiation or chemo first. I didn’t catch the symptoms as fast. But we’re moving fast now on the attack plan. Thank you for your support. I wish you well!
