Hiya, I’ve posted on the vulval cancer side but now I’m looking at some further treatment thought I would slide along over here. I’ll try to be quick.
End June found a growth on my labia. Turns out it’s mucosal melanoma. Had the full labia removed and 1cm of margin tissue. The surgeon and I decided in this so there hopefully would be no need to go back under the knife. This was 11 sept. Currently I’m recovering.
Scans etc showed no spread and the margins were clear. I’ve not been given my Breslow or stage yet. I’ve ordered my records but I now have a number of appointments! As you can guess, I’m under numerous teams, oncology, dermatology, gynaecology due to where/what it is.
One of those is ‘a discussion on immunotherapy’ which knocked me but I’ve processed and researched. And I think the discussion will be oh you’re having it. Haha.
I’m worried, as the initial cancer has not made me poorly, but this bit may.
so hi to you all and I’m sure I’ll be asking questions on the treatment forum soon xxx
