Is anyone familiar with Choroidal Melanoma?

I was diagnosed with choroidal melanoma in 2016 a month after giving birth to my youngest. I received wonderful care at Mayo and continue with my annual visits there as well. So far, with no metastasis. Deep breaths and one step at a time, one obstacle at a time. I have had some side effects from the treatment but am thankful every day that I am here to watch my kids grow.

Good Morning Red,

Your story is so encouraging.
I'm going to my first oncology appointment tomorrow. May I ask what kind of treatment they gave you that caused side effects, and what you feel you've done that helped the most? Do you know what class of tumor you had?

Thanks,
Leigha
