ET, HYDROXY AND MELANOMA
Having had a
malignant
melanoma
treated 5 year ago, and reading that the drug increases risks for skin cancer, has anyone else any thoughts. My platelets have been around 420 to 580 for the 10 years of my ET, Currently on low dosage aspirin only.

Nodual
malignant
melanoma
. Wide excision with clear margins. Now it's 5 years later, CT revealed 5cm adnexal mass. Dr thought it was benign, I knew it was MM. Surgery was on the 12th of Dec 2018. Removed right ovary and fallopian tube. Now labeled distant metastatic melanoma.

Learning more about Melanoma
I was assigned to study

Caregiver for 50 yr old Mom with Metastatic Melanoma
Initially the doctors did not think it was
melanoma
or in fact
malignant
, but it was. Level V and 8 mm. After loosing my stepdad to Testicular cancer the year before and my father's recent diagnosis of melanoma 3, we were in complete shock that we were yet again facing this ugly disease.

cystic thyroid nodules & malignant melanoma history
However, I have a history of 1 episode of
malignant
Melanoma
in the arm (caught very early). With this history (which GP didn't recall & I didn't link at the time -BRAF oncogene) should I ask for onward referral for biopsy of nodules

2nd round of LU177-PSMA Theraphy didn't go as planned. Immunotherapy in Europe for advanced prostate cancer?
He wants to do immunotherapy but they only offer that to
malignant
melanoma
patients here in Sweden. Do you know anywhere else in Europe where he could get immunotherapy?

Newly diagnosed melonoma. Scared!
Was given the gut turning news on Wednesday that the mole that I had removed 3 weeks ago, that I had asked to be removed two years ago and was assured was fine, was actually a
malignant
nodular
melanoma
. Depth 1.3mm, low mitotic rate and non ulcerated.

Melanoma survivor....safe to have kids?
I had metastatic
malignant
melanoma
in 2008. I had a skin graft and wide excision to remove my lymph nodes in my groin. Since then all PET scans have been clear, but I am wondering if it is safe to get pregnant? Anyone gone through this before? So far, no one has been able to help me.

Atrial Tachycardia with AFib
Up to last year I was on no medication, no real problems - but I had to have a
malignant
melanoma
removed from my face a year ago which has a 25% chance of returning somewhere so I’m having to learn to think about myself which is nigh on impossible!!

Exotic cures or traditional medication?? for my cancers?
I have been through 5 diagnoses, including 2 x
malignant
melanoma
, 2 x stage 4 Gliobastomer brain tumour and a stage 4 prostate cancer. All of these were primary cancers and not a metastasis of another.

New - Waiting for biopsy results -- Terrified :(
I knew "
malignant

" was bad.. but I had no idea how bad. I had to google what "1.5mm Breslow" meant. And basically everything about the results, as they were just handed to me by a receptionist...
