Hi everyone and welcome to everyone who's joined during the last month.

If you haven't posted yet and want to ask a question just click on Start A Discussion, which you'll see near the top of the page, or reply to this post. There are people here at all different stages of melanoma, so lots of experience available.

Another way of looking for information is to use the search bar near the top of the page to search for old threads covering what you're looking for.

If you haven't yet completed your profile when you have a minute could you pop something about your journey so far into it as it really helps others when answering. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit 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.

  • Hi from me as well.

    The online community is here to give peer to peer support, so don’t forget to join in on others posts if you have experienced something similar (or not) in a similar position, or just feel that that you know or appreciate what they are going through, a gentle virtual hug is always appreciated.

    If you have a question that you want to ask a professional, the ask an expert section is there, you will find links to ask a nurse, or ask about lymphoedema, on the melanoma group page on the right hand side. There work support section and financial advise might also be worth looking at in the ask an expert section as well as others. If you want experience or support from patients and carers living through melanoma well that’s what a lot of us are here for.

     also looks out for the travel insurance group, something that’s on my mind at the moment as I haven’t been abroad since my diagnosis, where as Latchbrook is often overseas.

    Best wishes and hope to talk to some of you soon.

    Take care KT
