              I was diagnosed July '12 Stage IIIC.  I had surgery to remove lymph nodes under right arm.  I signed up for clinical trial but was selected to do the Interferon arm of the trial versus IPI or maybe Yervoy.  The only treatment for Sage IIIC is Interferon that I am aware of.  I did the Interferon for 6 months and said enough.  So far, I am NED.

                    Hello,

                    I am a patient at Duke and am Stage 3C Met. Mal.Mel.  I was actually a little disappointed when I went there for my first visit back in Sept 2012.  In addition to being scared to death about my future, it did not seem that my information from my existing tests had been reviewed thoroughly.  I will say that my opinion did change after my first visit.  I had a lymph node dissection under my right arm and have had 2 other surgeries to go after tumors that ended up not being Melanoma.  My surgean Dr. Tyler is amazing.  My Oncologist, Dr. April Salama has been great.  I wish you and Lee all the best.
