Any have any experience of melanoma spreading to fingernail bed?
Any info would be much appreciated.
Hi Mbl19700
Melanoma that occurs under the fingernail is very rare and is called acral lentiginous melanoma. I don't have any experience with this but if you use the search facility at the top of the page, you'll find a few previous posts which mention it.
I can see that you posted a couple of years ago about having a lung cancer diagnosis. Is your treatment for that cancer still ongoing?
It would be great if you could update 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.
