Hi ,
I’m Sammy. I had over cancer, treated in August 2018 with bracial plaque to good effect.
now it’s February 2024 and I am recently diagnosed with eye melanoma cancer in my liver. There are a couple of dots on the scans that can’t be properly seen and one lesion that’s 1cm big, so only just big enough to have been biopsies. They tell me lesion are low, medium or high volume. Low being like mine (so very early stages) and high being 9cm or bigger.
i have opted in to a randomised control trial but waiting to hear if I ham in the group that will have the new drug/s (daily tablets) or the control group that is offered standard care (an infusion).
I love my job and don’t want to give it up, would even hold on to part time. Does anyone have any ideas how feasible this is?
Thank you
