Last April I was diagnosed with melanoma on my rat shin. Following surgeries some scans were done and a “spot “ on my pancreas discovered which turned out to be adenocarcinoma. The first surgery was halted when it was discovered that things were more complicated than first thought. Next week I have meetings with the surgeon, the oncologist specializing in melanomas and immunotherapy as well as the oncologist specializing in chemo as well as cancer of the pancreas etc. so once again it’s wait and see what “plan of tx” they come up with. I am being treated at university of texas south western medical center dallas. It is a teaching facility and all of the specialties I need are right there and that is a big help. Reading the experiences people have had has been very helpful in keeping orientation and focus.

Hi Michael, any update? How did your appointments go with the surgeon and cancer team? Do you have a treatment plan now?
