    Well it seems neoadjuvant therapy worked very well for me. All 34 lymph nodes, including the original positive one, came back negative for melanoma!!!!!!!

    I’ll start Opdivo after a few more weeks of healing from the neck dissection surgery.

    Fingers crossed this type of result persists in the clinical trial and the community will have a new option.
