@apple321 I’m glad my suggestion was helpful to you. I forgot to ask you earlier but do you know the Grade of the uterine Leiomyosarcoma diagnosis? It’s graded 1-4. Whether or not more treatment is recommended is dependent on the grade with 1 being the lowest number (most like normal cells) and 4 is the highest meaning the cancer has spread to other places.

Uterine Sarcoma (emphasis on staging for uterine leiomyosarcoma) from the American Cancer Society:

I finished my cancer surveillance appointment a little while ago and there is no evidence of disease - nothing new. So I return in 4 months.

Hooray, I'm very happy for you for your good news. May I ask why is in 4 months , not in 3 months for follow up check up next time? Did the doctor do CT scan with your lung or whole body in the check up ?
My uterine LMS is in stage 1B, because it's huge, 11cm.
