Just got my six month scans. Still clear. Very grateful to my surgeon, oncologist and the rest of the team, now I don’t have to have a scan or visit the doctor for another six months.

I look forward to hearing wonderful results about your children’s progress.

Wondering how your daughter is doing with Opdivo. My TF/Mek gives me fevers once in a while and am constantly fatigued. Will be all done middle of May. Only caution is my first full CT three weeks ago (have had a series of Pets that showed NED) showed tiny nodules on my lungs. Oncologist said they could have been there for some time and are hopefully benign. Future full CT’s will record any change.

You also said your son was diagnosed?

I hope all is well with you and your family.

How is everything going with you and your family?

So what treatment options have been discussed with you for your daughter?

So your daughter is gene Braf positive? The patient info above says this is unknown

Welcome, and sorry about your friend/family member's diagnosis. I am a long time survivor of my first bout with melanoma and a more recent Stage IV with my second round. It is scary but the support here is amazing.
