Mum has just started Tvec for melanoma in her leg - week 2 -we’re keen to hear others tips and experiences and to share ours - in short when to worry and when to accept that it’s all part of the treatment
Hi Carrynix and a very warm welcome to our corner of the online
Although I was diagnosed with melanoma I didn't have T-VEC, or talimogene laherparepvec to give it it's full name. However, I noticed that your post hadn't had any responses yet so responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
I've had a look in the group to see if anyone else has had the treatment and found the most recent person to have mentioned it is Kate_B123 . I've tagged her into this reply and hopefully she'll pop on and share her experiences with you.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your mum's diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select '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.
