Hi I’ve been diagnosed with eye melanoma stage one ! I’ve been positive all week as I had a good idea it wasn’t going to be “good” news!
I think I was kinda prepared and felt relieved that it’s stage one early detection !
Now im having panick attacks and panicking that there’s more than the eye melanoma
I could do with some advice and support please?
Just checking in ! It’s been a while ! It’s 4 years now since I had my ruthanium plaque treatment!
In the last three months I’ve had consistent haemhorrages in my left eye ! I only have little peripheral vision in my left eye ,can only see shadows ,
I’m concerned as I’m having more intense pain behind my eye and left side of my head! I’ve been to hospital a few times and they mentioned my blood pressure being high may be causing it , my eye pressure is ok ! I have fear of metastasis although my liver scans have been clear !,my concern is that maybe something else is going on in my brain ! The anxiety is awful , can anyone share any similar experience ! The tumour is flat but the bleeds are constant ! What should I do ? My appointment at hospital is September ! I think they are hoping the bleeds will settle without intervention! It’s driving me crazy with worry xx thank you for any help you can share
