If I have melanoma and it spread to the bowel could I still get treatment or not would it be too far
Hi Em1304 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I was diagnosed with melanoma 9 years ago now but have been fortunate so far that it hasn't spread. However, treatment has come on in leaps and bounds and there are lots of different treatments for melanoma which has spread.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join us over in the melanoma group as you'll then connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as you.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
