        As it turns out i really didnt have diarhea but i had the runs with blockage up the top of the intestines so ended up having to take laxative formulas to move it all and it still isnt really resolved although i have full proper bowel movements but still am blocked.

        Probably because i am on hydro morphine for nearly two months now it had blocked me up. So a bit complicated but i am out of hospital today having resolved that but generally feelling much worse than what i came in.

        Not sure if i will do any more treatments now anyway as i am getting too weak i think.

              Do not muck around with the red blister.

              I am now stage 4 and in poor condtion as a result of red blister that went undiagnosed by my local GP

              These rare types of melanoma are usually highly aggressive and account for a high proportion of melanoma fatalities.

              There should be more campaigns and awarness of the red blister types melanomas.

                    I had an amelanotic nodular melanoma and it was white and soft and mushy. Subsequent tumours appeared much the same.

                          Yep i was on an intravenous drip all day yesterday.

                          Things have improved but i am really hyped on the steroids.

                          Hopefully i dont get stuck in hospital for too long and i can get off the steroids and back to another round of infusions.

                          Luckily i didnt wait another day so anybody who gets in the same situation you need to act asap otherwise it could be a major problem.

                          Finally thanks for all the great here that has really helped me.

                                Doctors recommend taking 2 immodium after every bowel movement,

                                Not sure what the logic is but that is my experience.

                                Steroid worked to an extent but still have had a few false starts but not much to speak of and no real bowel movement per se,

                                I will probably get constipated now,
