What are the Symptoms of Sarcoma?

Although each individual experiences symptoms differently, sarcomas do have some common characteristics. Symptoms often don’t show up until the disease is advanced, so you should see your doctor if you notice any of the following symptoms:

• A new lump or bump anywhere on your body
• Increasing abdominal pain
• Blood in your stool or vomit (when blood appears in your stool, it may not look red but very dark, almost black)
• Pain in the bone
• Weight loss
• Fatigue
• Anemia
