  • Hello Midgeyblue

    I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis and the situation you find yourself in regarding treatment options. Undoubtedly, this is a very difficult time for you and it is natural that you want to try and connect with others who have experience with the treatment that you are able to undergo. 

    I'm sorry that you've found the Cancer Chat forum difficult to use. We do have a forum help section that has some handy guides for using the forum but if there's anything in particular the moderation team can help with, then do reach out to us and we will do our best to help and guide you. 

    I've had a look through the forum posts using the search function and unfortunately, I can't find any other posts where T-VEChas been recently mentioned. We do have some information about T-VEC on our website which you may find helpful. I'm going to tag in one of our regular members who has been living with melanoma for a number of years  . Angie may be able to help you get in touch with others who have experience with this treatment or who have been diagnosed with late-stage melanoma. 

    As you've posted in our Ask the Nurses topic area they will also post a reply to you but if you would prefer to talk with them you can contact them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    I do hope that you can make contact with others who have experience of this diagnosis and treatment Midgeyblue.
