Bio

History of melanoma on both sides of family. I have been on Zelboraf since Aug.2012. I have been feeling great for weeks. One of the side effects is taste buds changing. Now water or liquids in general are very very sweet. A hobby gardener for many years, I now get sick of the smell of vegetables in the garden. I have given up gardening.
