Hello, Everyone!
We are waiting for a second opinion from the Mayo Clinic, but it seems that I have a fist-sized spindle cell sarcoma next to (attached to?) my stomach. Anyone else familiar with spindle cell sarcoma?

    Sorry, everyone... I guess
    Sorry, everyone... I guess there are three different cancers that it could be.... I should know later today... My oncologist is leaning towards spindle cell CARCINOMA, not sarcoma... But sarcoma is one of the other possibilities, along with GIST. The waiting is soooooo hard.

    What are your symptoms?
    I am wondering if you have found out what kind you have. I would like to also know what kind of symptoms you are having that made you have your abdomen checked out. I am waiting for my first surgical oncologist appoint on 8/12 and have several lumps on my legs and severe abdominal pain. I also am feeling nauseas from time to time and have completely lost my appetite. Please let me know if you feel up to it. Thank and I will keep you in my prayers. Good luck to you!
