Suggest Treatment For Sarcoma In The Brain

Yes, my friend has been suffering from severe headaches, stuffiness in her nose, ear aches, her left eye is bulging and a sore throat. She was diagnosed as having a mass in her head and had surgery today. She is a survivor of stage 5 Lymphoma. The dr. who did the surgery told her sister that it was malignant and is sarcoma. What are her chances of survival? Will treatment just be radiation or chemo as well? I will be taking her to the dr. for follow-up on Friday. Are there any questions we need to ask him other than what the treatment will be? Thank you for your help....

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the prognosis is concern as long as the malignancy is concern, early diagnosis and treatment can complete normal life span, it is all depends upon the type of malignancy, stages, pathological changes, chemotherapy and radiation therapy is the only treatment being given and not other than this hope this information helps.
