Hi everyone. I’ve been reading through your experiences and want to be included so I can help support my Mum. She’s not really tech savvy and has asked me to do this. Her original melanoma on her lower left leg was dealt with by surgery and radiotherapy almost 3 years. Now it’s back with a vengeance at stage 3 and the tumours multiplied to 45 recently, though they’ve stopped multiplying now having had 2 lots of injections. Each one has been injected though some were grouped resulting in 23 and then 21 injections. She’s finding this quite horrific and she wonders how others have coped. She has had flu like symptoms afterwards though these subside in 48 hours. Otherwise she’s a very sprightly and healthy 79 year old. Many thanks for reading. Debbie x
