Hi everyone. I'm new to all this so please be patient with me. My mum got diagnosed with stage 4 lung small cell sarcoma . It has spread to her liver,lymphnodes and spine . Her legs are now swollen and getting worse. The hospital won't administer any medication till an ecg is carried out ,this was a week ago. Is this normal? In this current climate with covid its hard as the hospital is under alot of pressure . Also her thyroid is enlarged and awaiting for the thyroid team to get in touch. Has anyone else been in this situation? Should my mum be ringing the cancer team about her swollen legs. Thank you for reading.  Just don't know who else to ask.
