Gotgame I hope you don't mind me referencing our conversation here. I know you've mentioned before that you prefer talking on the open forums rather than private messages because more people can benefit from them.
In our conversation GG said he's not a fan of synthol because there is an increased risk of muscle tears and tendon tears. It seems there is also a risk of pulmonary embolism as well.
Something we never really hear about is the following though.
This is potentially very scary so I thought getting it out there and maybe having some discussion would be of benefit.
It makes me wonder....if sarcoma is a rare cancer (12,000 new cases per year compared to 250,000 new cases of breast cancer in just women per year)...is it possible that the this man had sarcoma caused by the site injections? Or is it truly just coincidence he got sarcoma precisely where he injected?
And does scar tissue from synthol look different than other scar tissue? I'm wondering how they could not tell the difference between fibrotic tissue and cancer.

Well lets say you hurt your shoulder and now you get a shoulder MRI, or you are in an accident and you break your arm and get a CT or X ray.... or later on it life if you ever had cancer and you get a PET scan... that area is gonna show up VERY abnormal on imaging and you can't just assuming it from the injection as soft tissue sarcomas can look nearly identical and even on biopsy the tissue can look bad.. you put yourself in a bad place .
This happened about two years ago. Guy had a mass in his upper arm. He had imaging done and they were concerned but he figured it was just from his local injections. Turned out it was a sarcoma. Had to have the arm and the entire shoulder removed. Not saying the injections caused anything but it made things challenging
