      I am Stage IV melanoma and have taken Temodar for 3 months.  Not too many side effects at all. Fatigue.  Some pain at first but Pain Pills took care of that.  Melanoma kept growing I guess.   I took CT Scan and report came back that all spots were same size. I questions about a specific spot, Lymph Node by right armpit.  They couldn't answer it at first then 2 days later after Oncologist questioned them, the lymph node had grown 30%. I really don't think the Radiologist or whoever measured the thing the first time.  I am going to do something about it but don't know what yet.  Am waiting for approval of IPI and may take that.  Although I have very serious heart disease.  Good Luck to you.
