Sarcoma

Hi, im George, 34 year male from South West Devon, recently I've been suspected for soft tissue sarcoma on my left upper arm, i have big lump in my muscle, nhs refereee to the sarcoma specialist and they proceed with scan, ct, and biopsy but after all that they are reserved and didn't put a diagnosis, in few days they will proceed to remove the lump and after that they can be more exactly wit diagnosis but on all my letters written sarcoma excision. Today i spotted in my right arm in the exactly position like on left arm another lump but looks more smaller, there is any chance to be something else because I've seen on internet is very rare to have two sarcomas?

  • Hello GeorgeN,

    The best thing to do is to speak to your doctor about this other lump, if you haven't already. When you are worried that you may have cancer, it can be tempting to look for answers online, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better. And the only person that can diagnose you is your doctor.  

    I hope this is helpful,
