We care. We really do. I have had Stage IV melanoma since 2009, and frankly, I think I am dealing some major psychological issues from going through so much. sometimes I don't respond like I should to others' needs. Sad, but true. Please stay on.

Bio was very, very hard. I would look at other therapies first. Bio is so toxic. I could only do it 3 times. It didn't work, and I was in ICU hallucinating. I hate to be a naysayer, it might be a magic bullet for you, it sure wasn't for me.'Good Luck.

Hi, I was DX in June, 2009, and they gave me 3 months to live. I set up my funeral and paid for it. I am still here. I don't know what did it but I was in the TIL trial in Maryland's NIH (it might have helped). Nothing has actually worked. I have grown tumors after Yervoy, Biochemo, interferon, and the TIL. I have Stage IV tumors in me now. I haven't had scans in a while. I am doing the "wait and see" approach. I hope it's not the "wait and die" approach. I am hoping something new comes out for Stage IV pts. I am not eligible for any more clinical trials.
good luck to you. You are still here. That is an inspiration.

I agree. I went through 3 bouts of biochemo 2 years ago with Dr. Gailani at Kaiser Riverside. I don't think it is worth it. Of course, I had growth of tumors so I wouldn't. It is very, very toxic. Watch out for the kidney and bladder problems, permanent damage to these organs. I wouldn't do it again.
