Melanoma update
I had a melanoma removed from my scalp two years ago (with a sentinel lymph node removal), and this forum was a great help.
I was told that nothing was found, and that I was all set, except to do quarterly skin checks with my dermatologist.
Well, last week I discovered a lump on my neck, just below where the SLN were removed. Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa got me in the next day (I feel lucky to live only 40 minutes away), and based on an ultrasound, told me I needed to get it biopsied, which happened this morning.
The PA did not really indicate that this might be "nothing", so I am a little concerned.
I will check in when I find out the results, which will probably take at least 5 business days.

I too have melanoma stage 4 in my lungs and have hit roadblocks in treatment as well. I am doing the holistic approach but clean vegan diet instead of keto. I just did a 3 day fast. Have you read radical remission? Are you doing acupuncture? I would like to know what else you are trying. Thanks for sharing and pray it turns around for you!
