Hi, I've had the ops. they removed 3 lymph nodes where cancer cells was present. The following scans showed no signs of any other cancers. Immunotherapy was discussed, I'm unsure about this treatment as there seems many possible serious side effects. Doctor gave me lots of statistics but didn't seem to give me any guidance as to whether this is the treatment I need.
has anyone had experience of this treatment and how did it go?
Hi mashup1 and a very warm welcome to the online community
It can be very difficult weighing up the pros and cons of having treatment so the online community is a great place to be able to share experiences.
Can I ask if the skin cancer you were diagnosed with is melanoma? If so can I invite you to join us over in the melanoma group where you'll find lots of conversations around immunotherapy.
