Sarcoma Awareness Month: What you need to know about these cancers
Although most people have heard of sarcomas, research suggests the majority don’t really know what they are. A study by Sarcoma UK found 75% of people didn’t know what a sarcoma was – but there’s no better time than July’s Sarcoma Awareness Month to learn. Sarcomas are rare cancers that can either form in the bones or soft tissues that connect, support and surround other body structures and organs, explains Sarcoma UK. “If you’ve never heard of sarcoma before, you’re not alone,” says Dr Sorrel Bickley, director of research, policy and support at Sarcoma UK. “Sarcoma can affect any part of the body, on the inside or outside, including the muscle, bone, tendons, blood vessels and fatty tissues.” She says around 15 people are diagnosed with sarcoma cancer every day in the UK, and stresses: “It can affect anyone, at any age, and it’s vital that healthcare professionals can recognise its signs and symptoms.” During Sarcoma Awareness Month the charity is running a campaign called Does Size Matter?, in a bid to draw attention to the fact that a lump getting bigger is a key sign of sarcoma. “Most lumps and pains won’t be sarcomas, but it’s important to keep an eye on symptoms and to seek medical help if you’re worried,” stresses Bickley, who explains that many patients tell the charity it’s taken a long time for them to get a correct diagnosis. She adds: “Many people don’t consider their symptoms might be serious. Delays cost lives, and people have a better chance of surviving sarcoma if their cancer is diagnosed early. ” There are around 100 different subtypes of sarcoma, grouped into soft tissue sarcomas and bone sarcomas, and Bickley explains: “Soft tissue sarcomas may not have obvious symptoms in the early stages when the tumour is very small. The symptoms can become more obvious as the sarcoma grows, but this can depend on where in the body it’s found. ” She says there are several main sarcoma symptoms to be aware of… A lump that grows or changes Bickley says sarcoma is a “complicated cancer”, but the most common symptom is a lump, which could be anywhere on the body – including the arm or leg. “Most lumps aren’t harmful and a lump that isn’t getting bigger, isn’t causing any pain, or that has been there for a long time isn’t likely to be anything to worry about,” she says. “But if it’s growing quicky or measures more than five centimetres – about the size of a golf ball – then you should get it checked by your GP.” Swelling or pain in or around a bone Sarcoma cancer can also start in a bone – the most common symptoms are unexplained pain or tenderness around a bone, which may come and go and may be worse at night, explains Bickley. “If the pain is getting worse and doesn’t go away with rest or at night, you should go and see your GP to get it checked,” she advises. Stomach pain, feeling sick and loss of appetite Some forms of sarcoma – known as a gastrointestinal stromal tumours, or GISTs – can start in the gastrointestinal tract. “With this type of sarcoma, people most often experience symptoms like fatigue, anaemia, weight loss, feeling sick or discomfort around their stomach,” Bickley says. Blood in poo or vomit Noticing blood in your poo or vomit can also be a sign of a gastrointestinal stromal tumour, says Bickley, who adds: “There are lots of causes for blood in poo or vomit, but it needs to be checked by a medical professional.” For more information or advice about sarcoma, call the Sarcoma UK support line on 0808 801 0401, email supportline@sarcoma.org.uk, or text 07860 058830 to contact a specialist adviser.

Kate Middleton’s taste in jewellery is a ‘disappointment’, says former Vogue editor Suzy Menkes
The Princess of Wales has been labelled a “disappointment’ with regards to her approach to jewellery. Former Vogue editor and fashion critic Suzy Menkes made the remarks during an interview on the newest episode of her podcast Creative Conversations. Speaking to British Vogue’s jewellery editor Carol Woolton, the two discussed and analysed some of Kate Middleton’s recent style choices, explaining to listeners that as a senior member of the royal family, she would surely have access to some of the finest jewels in the country. “The Princess of Wales is a bit of a disappointment about jewellery,” said Menkes. “She gives the impression that she only puts it on when she absolutely has to.” The 79-year-old critic continued: “I imagine her looking beautiful in one of those gowns behind the scenes and then pulling a face as if to say, ‘Do I have to wear this?’ “She doesn’t give any sense of adoring jewellery and being pleased to put it on.” Menkes went on to suggest that Queen Camilla seems far more interested in jewellery, stating: “[Kate] doesn’t seem to have Camilla’s joy at wearing jewellery.” She went on: “We now have a new Queen, so presumably she has a first opportunity to look at the jewels. “We can imagine that the next in line to the throne’s wife would be something that was very special, so will we see Catherine wearing jewellery that is more dramatic, that is more personal to her? I don’t know. I can’t help feeling with things of beauty, you either love it or you don’t.” Later in the podcast, Menkes went on to discuss some of the controversy that the royal family’s jewellery collection has garnered over the years. “It’s one of these strange secrets,” she said. “It’s not discussed, and I can see why because some of the pieces are dubious. They came from India. “I won’t say they were stolen but they were perhaps given and taken by the British Royal Family. They weren’t stealing it but they were taking over a country at that time, and and taking jewels they thought were an attractive thing to take back to England with them.” Read More Kate Middleton’s sweet tradition for Prince George’s birthday Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte wear matching ruffles for eight-year-old’s first Wimbledon Adorable moment young boy meets Kate Middleton at Wimbledon Fans defend Prince Harry and Meghan Markle amid breakup rumours Kate Middleton’s sweet tradition for Prince George’s birthday Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte wear matching ruffles for Wimbledon finals
