I've been waiting to hear back from melanoma experts at University of Colorado regarding whether I should start back on immunotherapy drugs or wait.They advised doing PET scans every 3 months and hold off on starting up treatment until such time (if and when) a melanoma recurrence is found. It's a risk benefit issue with the danger of resuming immunotherapy being the possibility of further organ damage as a side effect. Many stage 2b tumors are controlled with surgery alone and patients never need immunotherapy. I will get one more outside opinion and then make my decision.Bottom line, my daughter's liver lesions are benign and that's the best Easter gift a Dad could have.And it seems I have dodged another potentially scary skin cancer bullet.
