Re: [Ewings Sarcoma] Regarding Treatment.

hi my name is shawn I also have ewings when I was diagnosed I had several tumors
but did alot of research. the prognosis rate increases alot when chemo is used
with radiation and surgery. that is if there is only one tumor. I can answer
any questions you may have to the best of my abilities. I am 24 and have been
recieving treatment for the last 3 years. I have had chemo radiation and the
stem cell transplant. feel free to email me at any time. god bless you.

My recently finished her radiation treatment for Ewing. We are still
waiting for the results. Is it common to just give radiation therapy
without chemotherapy. Her leg and body still hurts and the last
reatment was 3 weeks ago. Please help both of us with any information
as to the treatment. Oh yes, the cancer is in her thigh.
