I'm sorry you're feeling so low, Colleen. If I had any extra energy or positivity, I'd send it your way. Unfortunately, amidst a house remodel, the business of farming, raising five boys, a challenging marriage, yada yada yada…I'm maxed out myself. I suspect your feelings are quite normal, although they're not the reality for my husband ~ who is also stage 3B, diagnosed in July, 2012. I wish he'd display *some* real reaction in response to this unexpected and unwanted journey. It seems to be nothing more than a minor inconvience to him, and any emotion on my part is totally incomprehensible to him. At least you're able to keep it real, and that counts for something. All the best to you.
Warmly,
Colleen

Any other takers? I'd so appreciate more input on this…

Mmm, no, not every user here can reproduce the problem. I wasn't aware this site offered a chat room until reading this thread. I'm able to access it and just a few minutes ago, I posted a test message. Perhaps I'm looking at something or doing something different from the rest of you, but it does seem to work just fine for me.

Thanks for your reply, buckytom. I'm sorry to hear of your diagnosis. Sounds like even though you and my husband are both 3B, you're each following quite different courses of treatment. Proving once again that best management of this disease is anyone's guess. :-/
Take care,
Colleen

Thank you for this, Janner. Hans's local oncologist has limited experience with melanoma so I'm wondering what others in this position have heard from their docs. I think Hans may contact the medical oncologist at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance who specializes in melanoma and with whom he consulted originally. I feel so much better about the people at SCCA than I do this local guy. Unfortunately, our health insurance carrier doesn't agree.
Best,
Colleen
