        hi,
        I completely understand how you feel. If you are put on yervoy or pd1 the side effects are minimal skin rash and some fatigue if they choose chemo you will probably lose tour hair I did not take very good care of my hair but given a second chance I will do a better job. I also felt I had to get everything in order for my 2 girls and gave all divided all my jewelry up. I am stii around after 19 months and my girl friends want me to get my stuff back but it gives me joy to see them weraring it. Also the chemo they give you anti nausea medicine and steroids so the side effects are not so bad. Good luck and wishing you the best. Please ask any questions everyone on this site completely understands how you feel

              Thanks Eva. What type of exercise did you do to combat fatigue? Also, was surgery ever suggested as well? If you are willing to share, where did the melanoma originate?
