Lab shows that it is Scynovial sarcoma . He contacted a specialist who only handles that type at MD Anderson. I think some insurance issues came up , I am not sure where it stands right now.
That cancer rocks link up above is interesting stuff. I will ready more of it tonight.

my brother had synovial sarcoma. Started with a knot on his hip that he thought was a boil. Went to doctor to have it lanced and she was worried it might be the C word. Sure enough before he was done with the chemo and radiation and before surgery it was the size of a half a football. It had already gone to his lungs. He fought for 3.5 years. He was on an experiment drug from MD Anderson. Synovial Sarcoma is a rare form and usually is around joints in the body.

That’s what I have read , that it ends up in the lungs not starts there. A pet scan as not been done but a cat scan was done in the torso area. No other tumors were seen.
