Are melanoma and other skin cancer patients easily susceptible to covid19.
I tried reading different sites but they stay away from the virus and just talk about the cancer (
melanoma
).

It's Melanoma Awareness Month and boy am I aware of my grief about melanoma
Living with
melanoma
for me has always been about adaptability. What is known today changes tomorrow.

New study looking at use of flu vaccines in melanoma patients on Keytruda released
This has been a question Wayne and I have posed for 5 years that has some initial data covering actual patients who had at least one dose of pembro over several flu seasons of patient tracking. Good article to share with your docs in advance of the 2020-2021 season: https://www.medpagetoday.com/reading-room

Melanoma update
I expected bad news and to be referred back to my local oncology dept but... there were no cells found around the original
melanoma
site and no spread to the lymph nodes! No more treatment needed but 3 monthly check ups for 3 years, wonderful.

Keynote 695 clinical trial still open: Intratumoral plus Pembro
Theory is if you can trick the tumors into fighting the
melanoma
, they will then share this information with other cells who will spread the news throughout the body. Must have Stage 3-4
melanoma
. Passing this along. Missy

VEGF Inhibitors.
It prevents
melanoma
cell proliferation by inhibiting the expression of VEGF. It downregulates the activation of focal adhesion kinase. It increases the degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and ultimately reduces VEGF expression [132].

Melanoma Diagnosis
Then in January 2019 I was diagnosed with
Melanoma
on my back, I had this surgically removed and at the same time I had two sentinel node biopsies carried out on the lymph nodes on both armpits, all the biopsies on the three area's came back with negative results. Marvelous I thought!

Annual 'Check Ups', All OK
Overall it is VERY good news, no reassurance of the small
Melanoma
I had on my hand. The Irritation, on near my armpit, is 'only' Skin Tags and, near my 'Poor Sore Bottom' is only from Poo. A quick joke.... Where do you find a Spider, that doesn't have any legs? Wherever you left it😄.

Possible nail melanoma
I googled “black streak on nail” and came across nail
melanoma
which is basically skin cancer. I am really really freaking out. Has anyone seen or had this? Does this look like a nail
melanoma
??

Radiotherapy? Did you know of the ONGOING effects?
About 33 years ago a mole on the back of my left arm had to be removed due to malignant
melanoma
( I had never sunbathed ) Subsequently the glands under my arm were removed and I had aggressive radiotherapy on my shoulder. I was badly burned and the hair & sweat glands under the arm were destroyed.
