I have stage 3 melanoma of right leg(2nd one). I’ve had a WLE , skin graft and lymph node biopsy which showed cancer spread to wound site and lymph nodes. Ct scan shows no spread to organs and I have first meeting with oncologist this week. I have been told I’ll be looking most likely at immunotherapy for a year. Question- what should I be asking the oncologist- any advice. I’m terrified of the possible side effects of immunotherapy as I take no medication at the moment- am very active and loved travelling..
