      I spent alot of time on this site just wanted to post positive news because during my initial diagnosis I liked to read the positive stories. Im 4 years NED (diagnosed at 34yoa) stage 3b ulcerated melanoma to my back. Surgery wide excision with clnd armpit. I was given Yervoy 10mg 4 doses. God bless you all.

              The treatments of yervoy landed me in the hospital for 2 weeks. Body rash , diarreah, and a fever that would not go down 101 and above.
