Me and Melanoma

Started my Melanoma journey in 2020.  Had it removed, parameters clear.  Returned in 2022, parameters clear but returned again Nov 2023.  Recently had it removed and it isn’t clear so need more treatment.  I’ve had a general anaesthetic which gave me nerve damage.  2nd one with local went ok.  3rd one with local gave me more nerve damage.  So I still have the cancer and my right arm is a wreck!  Stopped my immunotherapy as it’s obv not working.  Feeling very fed up right now.  Waiting for a decision on how we go forward.  Anyone has similar problems?

    Hi,

    I'm so sorry you are going through all this. I haven't had the same problems as you but I just wanted to reach out. I have sent you a friend request - if you accept it we can chat by private message. Meanwhile I hope your team come up with a different treatment plan that will work for you. Good luck,
