Cancer cells found. Had result of first CT scan with oncologist today. There are signs of spots on my lungs and also a mass in my pelvis. They are not sure if this is cancer or post op fluids etc. I am having chemo on 12th April using doxorubicin. My consultant said chemo was not always effective against saracoma. I feel quite numb. I have 3 boys 16, 15, 12 and a lovely husband. Don&amp;#39;t know how to start telling the boys about this. I am scared and sad and and calm all rolled into one. I would love to talk to other people on the site who&amp;nbsp;are going through similar experiences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=327651&amp;AppID=30583&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</content><author><name>Former Member</name><uri>https://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember</uri></author><category term="hysterectomy" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/hysterectomy" /><category term="chemotherapy" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/chemotherapy" /><category term="Doxorubicin" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/Doxorubicin" /><category term="CT Scan" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/CT%2bScan" /><category term="Leiomyosarcoma" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/Leiomyosarcoma" /><category term="Oncologist" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/Oncologist" /><category term="fluids" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/geraldine23/archive/tags/fluids" /></entry></feed>
