  1. Diagnosed with lung melanoma four months ago. Have been pushed and probed in all directions since. 
    Had heart and lung stress test few weeks ago and had cardiac arrest. Rushed to RVH. Decided to do angiogram since had quadruple bypass 20 years ago. Unfortunately clopidrigal reaction so delayed a few days. 
    Seems all by passes and arteries in good shape so ICD fitted. Now what?  Lung melanoma still there. 

  • Hi Jimmycat200 welcome to the group, but sorry you find yourself here. It sounds like you have had a really rough time of it. Glad to hear you are now on the mend with the heart issues and have the pacemaker fitted. Do you now have any follow up appointments to address the melanoma?
