      My Dr. wants me to have abdominal and subcutaneous surgeries to remove melanomas.  I just had my 2nd Yervoy, and I wonder if this is a good idea.  I am getting a second opinion at Angeles Clinic.  I just wonder if anyone else has had this issue.

      I have Stage IV for about 2 years, and this is my 4th treatment(s).  Interferon, Ipi, Bio, and Til
