My third surgery in as many years.........

1 minute read time.

Hi everyone. Thought i would write a little update on me. Since Eastertime i have been feeling less well each day. I have been having my regular checks and full body scans but asked for an earlier scan than my next one due in August. It turns out that my pelvic sarcoma has returned and is huge :-( It is pressing on my main nerve that runs down my left leg which is giving me such pain. I have medication for this but it soon wears off, i have even developed a limp. Im trying not to let anything stop me doing my usual daily chores, but i am finding myself on the sofa more and more these last few days. I am waiting for a phone call from my Specialist in London on Wednesday who will tell me whether i can have further surgery (which will be my third) or if i have to start chemo. Wed seems so far away but i have to wait until they have a meeting about me and the best way to go forward. I do not live in London but nearer to sunny Southend. This time i have opted to have my treatment in London as they are Specialists in my type of rare cancer, leiomyosarcoma. I will let you all know what happens......................

Best wishes to you all, Gillian X
