8 month ago my husband ended two years of treatment with pegylated interferon. They were two very difficult years …. But he finally finished the treatment, He took a few month to recover, but now he has a normal life. The only problem is infertility. Interferon caused infertility, and despite fertility treatments even we could not have children. He was stage 3a, and thank God, not return melanoma.

Hi Tony! My husband (38 years) was diagnosed with melanoma (ankle) in june 2012(Breslow 2.3 mm without ulceration, less than 1 mm2 mitosis), we are living in hell, unfortunately the result of the sentinel node biopsy (groin) gave positive 1/4, so he hada surgery on groin node dissection and lymph node biopsy in the stomach, all clean.
Doctor offered interferon pegylado (new treatment) or wait and watch, my husband started on 29 October with pegylated interferon treatment as adyudante.Treatmentis difficult,has many side effects.
Here is my post of the side effects of pegylated interferon:
The worst was that it caused infertility, so long are doing fertility treatments (IVF) to see if we can be parents …
Thank God my husband ended two years of pegylated interferon in October 2014, now has the next month CT scan, hopefully this all right.
Now, my husband is 41 years old.
