sibling has been diagnosed with melanoma that had gone deep. 
ct and mri scans have showed lesions on lung, spleen, spine and liver( awaiting to get tested to see if if it has spread)
More appointments are scheduled, put he is currently suffering a lot of pain from the chest area. Does anyone know if a nurse could help to do anything for the pain.

seems an awkward time as it's Xmas.

thanks a

  • Hi  

    I'm sorry to read that your sibling's been diagnosed with melanoma and that he's in a lot of pain. If he hasn't already he should contact his SCNS to discuss the pain he's in and hopefully be prescribed painkillers. If he can't get in touch with his SCNS then NHS111 or his GP would be the next people to try.
