Breast sarcoma is entirely different from the usual "breast cancer" and is very rare. Primary sarcoma of the breast is similar to other soft tissue sarcomas and would have many of the same symptoms (weight loss and anemia); these symptoms are not common to the ordinary types of breast cancer.   Regards ..

yes, I agree, I never lost weight with BC, and gained weight with chemotherapy.

Only when the initial breast cancer spread did I lose weight, quite a bit, and kept losing with more chemotherapy then. This has stopped though now but I also did not regain the weight.
