Went to the dermatology appointment today.  I asked for my staging.  This is pT4b or Stage 2c in normal terms.  

They then had a look at all the moles on my body and those I thought were dodgy weren’t but she found a suspicious one on my back.  She took a photo and even, I, not a doctor can see it’s not right.  I suppose it’s good to have the all round check up.  I’m booked in for that one off on 06/11.  

They will be scheduling another CT as the last one I had was August.  

From the staging, I guess I’ll be getting immunotherapy.  

  • I was a 2B and would not have been offered any immunotherapy or BRAF medication, but unfortunately, a lymph node was positive, so now I am a 3C. I saw my oncologist, and I am due to start BRAF medication next week. I wish you all the best
