more surgery -now the other leg

Have had pain in left thigh for 4-5 days now. Saw the surgeon today for post op on right femur surgery. Told him about the pain & he took xray and compared it to the MRI from December. Conclusion - get the surgery done on left leg sooner than later. Talked to onc, later today & he agrees. I need to call in the morning to find out when I can schedule, The onc wants the surgery this week if possible and as soon as I recover to start a new chemo. This still hasn't really sunk in yet - I don't feel like I'm strong yet from the 1st surgery. The leg is doing fine, but my fatigue and general weakness is still bad. I'll let you know more when I get the surgery scheduled. Pam
