My melanoma spread to my liver. Iwas cancer free for 5 years. I am located in MN. I am waiting to find out when my appointment is with an oncologist. What questions did you ask?

I’m only 10 months post radiation and going every 3 months for CT chest, MRI abdomen and blood work. So far, so good.

I wish I knew what questions you should ask other than prognosis. Google search should help you find some info to help you with questions.

My prayers are with you.

@dontteachhate45, I'm sorry to hear that metastasis to the liver has been confirmed. Here are some questions to consider asking:
- Do I need any additional tests?
- What are my treatment options?
- What are the potential side effects of each treatment option?
- Is there one treatment you feel is best for me?
- How long can I take to decide on a treatment option?
- How aggressive is metastatic melanoma?
- What signs and symptoms should I keep an eye out for?
- What are the next steps?
