Your blog is the first site I opened and, frankly, I am scared. My bulge, though smaller than yours, is almost identical in shape and location, albeit on the other leg. Unlike you, however, I do not have a loving family around me for support. Nor do I have insurance, or a job, for that matter. My only hope - and I do NOT mean for this world - is in God and in His Son, Jesus Christ.<br /><br />G.A.gabealexander26https://www.blogger.com/profile/17199213306968581723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054382867488956255.post-66195922080550496802011-06-05T15:29:33.342-04:002011-06-05T15:29:33.342-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.gabealexander26https://www.blogger.com/profile/17199213306968581723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054382867488956255.post-12195915939060928282011-06-05T15:15:24.617-04:002011-06-05T15:15:24.617-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.gabealexander26https://www.blogger.com/profile/17199213306968581723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054382867488956255.post-14010692098069247012010-12-22T23:57:43.665-05:002010-12-22T23:57:43.665-05:00Hi Dave-

I was told that I have a 12cm X 11cm X8 cm tumor that needs to be removed ASAP (Jan 14th to be exact, which does not seem that soon). Doctor thinks it is a Liposarcoma. I think it is just a benign tumor. CT was done, no biopsy necessary due to the surgery right around the corner. So thank you for sharing your story with us, I look at the picture of your leg and thought this looks pretty familiar. Although mine is in the shape of a soft ball, the same area as yours was. So we will wait and see but as I said before I think it is a benign tumor (yes, that may be a bit of denial).

I decided to post a comment to this post because it's right where I'm at in my experience with a "big muscle" (although not the size of yours) on the outside of my right thigh. I have my MRI Friday morning, so fingers crossed it's just a lipoma or something relatively benign! Thanks for sharing your experience here.<br /><br />Cindy G.<br /><br />P.S. The shaved head is a great look for you!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13417859608163693196noreply@blogger.com
