Hi

im almost 6 months post initial surgery to my foot & have completed 30 sessions o f radiotherapy. Sadly my tumour has metastasised/spread to my groin lymph nodes & I have lumps in my lower leg within the lymphatics. I’ve been told this is highly unusual for sarcomas but here I am! I’ve just had isolated limb perfusion at the Marsden & wondered if anyone else out there had been through this therapy. It’s 11 days since the treatment & my foot is very swollen & painful such that my mobility is severely restricted
