I have a 5th recurrence of mm on my leg and there has been a suggestion for possible Tvec treatment. I would like to speak to anybody on here who has experience of this as I am feeling very anxious about it. Hope everybody as well as they can be today...
Hi there, I am taking a break from my Tvec treatment just now as it seems to have done really well with the melanoma spots on my lower leg. However, having had the treatment right up until one month ago, I am finding my leg where the treatment was delivered...
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
Has anyone had Tvec immunotherapy treatment for stage 3C melanoma? I am due to start my treatment on Thursday and am feeling nervous about it.
