Good Morning All,

I was diagnosed with conjunctival malignant melanoma over 4 years ago and recently it spread to one of my lymph nodes in my parotid (salivary) gland. I had a partial superficial parotidectomy to remove the tumour and lymph node (plus others) almost 3 weeks ago. I have been recommended adjuvant immunotherapy for a year but am uncertain as to whether to have this treatment. I am keen to know of any alternative (or integrated/naturopathic) treatments that may be available under the NHS, preferably in London.

Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help with my query.

    Hi, I have just been diagnosed with this in my eye too, my operation is in 2 weeks time, any advice would be great. It is very rare to hear of this
