      Hi Ted,

      Fairly sure the beast never left me and has metastasized… if so, would you recommend that immunotherapy compared to surgery, chemo, etc… ?

      I haven’t decided against treatment… I just wondered how bad the dying symptoms are compared to the treatment anguishes I’ve read about in these forums.

      Thanks,
      Tom

      Not officially “Phased” at this point (without SLNB)…
      but was staged at 2a after initial 1.9 biopsy (9 mos. ago).
      Carried lesion on arm for 2 years prior to that.

      My Dr. has recommended standard procedures… I was
      just wonderering if anyone has gone without treatment,
      or knows of anyone, and, what happened… Thanks.
