Hi, I've recently had 2 ops to have a lump removed from my upper arm and been told it's fibroxanthoma. Anyone else have this?

I have to wait 3-4 weeks from my op last Friday for results. My head just all over the place, I can't sleep!!. Would just be great to meet someone who has had this.

    Hello Mrsesg,

    I am sorry to hear you are having trouble sleeping after being diagnosed with fibroxanthoma. Having to wait 3-4 weeks for results must be really difficult and I hope you are recovering well from your operations.

    I also hope you will get to talk to someone else here who has or has had fibroxanthoma. If I notice anyone posting on the forum who has got the same condition, I promise that I will make sure to mention you and to point them in the direction of your thread!

    Our nurses may also be able to answer some of the questions you may have. If you live in the UK, you can ring them on this free number 0808 800 4040. Their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.

    Best wishes,
