I was diagnosed with malignant mucosal melanoma January 2016.  I had a tumor on the dante line just at the rectal canal.  It was removed surgically with adjuvant radiotherapy for 3 weeks.  I had lost a kidney the year before so I did not qualify for any trials.  I was only watch and wait.  So after a year and 4 months of clear scans, one came back with a lymph node positive for melanoma..  Now I am on the same ride many are with immunnotherapy using Yervoy and Opdivo combo for 4 weeks.  It is still a wait and see ezperience because you never know what they might find in your next scan.  the good things is that I feel fairly good.  I still believe God has this and will take me home when he is ready to.  I just completed my first Yervoy/Opdivo dose…  No big side effects yet.. They say those come after the four treatments.
