Hi Alansea123 and a very warm welcome to the group.
My melanoma started from a classic lesion on my arm and I didn't need immunotherapy so don't really have the right experience to share with you. However, I totally understand how "gutting" it is to be told that you have melanoma.
There are lots of people in this group who are on nivolumab and I'm sure some of them will be along soon to share their experiences with you. In the meantime, if you click here it will take you to posts within this group which mention this type of immunotherapy.
Wishing you all the best
Anne
