      Probably the wrong way to do this, but….I wanted to thank Bubbles for all the links she has recently posted. As others have mentioned, it's easy to get overwhelmed with information, and still have no idea what to do. That being said, it's nice to have.

      In my personal case, I read as much as possible, which lead me to change doctors. I didn't feel that interferon or interleukin-2 looked that promising. I'm now on Yervoy, because of said doctor change. Whether that was the "best" choice, time will tell. But, we have to be comfortable with our own decisions, because we're the one who has to live with them.

          I second that, posters like Bubbles and others who freely share information are worth their weight in gold. They might never know how valuable they are to others. Thanks for sharing!

                I go also to melanomaforum.org too for clear information and support.  They have some great webinars and a doctor from Mayo Clinic that answers questions:  www.melanomainternational.org
