Anyone here had metastatic melanoma to the pelvis? I was 1a on leg 4 years ago and after lots of tests told today the bad news. Mass in approx 7cm in pelvis. Waiting to hear from MDT so I know treatment as was told from the non experts today. Looking for some answers on what treatment could be and if it’s possible I’d have surgery to remove the mass.
So sad to be going through this all over again in a much worse position x

  • UK charity Melanoma Focus has excellent information resources which may well provide information helpful to you.  Wishing you well.

  • Hi Rob. 
    I am so sorry you are having to go through this again, it’s tiring and at the very least worrying. I have not been in your situation as I am newly diagnosed stage 3b. 
    everything I have read says the main treatment for melanoma is surgery, so maybe this could be an option for you. I hope your consultant is someone you can speak openly to, it may be something you will have to bring up to him/her. 
    have they restaged you? It’s a scary time, I hope you will soon get some answers and I wish you the very best.
