        I am not often on this board, but if you are up to it, and still have the strnegth or hope, then you may try to find another excelling oncologist in one of the leading melanoma centers, and check if they can put you on some good trial fast.

        I wish you all the luck

              Thank you very much! I am so glad he did not disappear. Your response was very helpful, as one of his long term patients.

                    Have you received PD-1? I did not see in your bio that you did. How come? We are seriously considering PD-1. Are there any other treatments? I know of the anti-Braf drugs. Are they hleping for long term? Yervoy helped for many years, but stopped due to side effects, and looking for alternatives since there is a recurrence. IL-2 high dose is irrelevant and biochemo was already done prior to Yervoy.
