Fibrous Dysplasic Osteosarcoma at the Fibula
Age at Diagnosis: 35
Year of Diagnosis: 1991
Location: United Kingdom
Diagnosis: I had the original diagnosis of low grade central osteosarcoma in 1991 (I have had three recurrences since that time and my journey continues).

I was referred to the local Orthopaedic Doctor, who arranged the usual barrage of x-rays, including some of my knee as I had complained of an ache in the knee joint since the fall.
