“My first question to the doctor was, ‘It’s not cancer, is it?’ and they said, ‘We can’t rule it out.’” Geeta was diagnosed with sarcoma after she noticed a lump on her leg in the bath in August last year. After it was confirmed that Geeta had sarcoma, further tests found that the cancer had spread to her lungs. After courses of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, Geeta recently began immunotherapy treatment for the cancer in her lungs. She said, “My most recent scan came back as stable. Now I want to raise awareness – if you notice anything that’s unusual for you, talk to your doctor.” Thank you, Geeta for sharing your story with us. July is Sarcoma Awareness Month.
