      After feeling like I was being led down the wrong path for the past 2 months, I finally feel like I'm heading in the right direction. We met with my new care team at MD Anderson yesterday. I will either go on a trial for ipi + IL2 or ipi + PD1.  I'm hoping for the latter. 

      Being on a trial with MDA will require me to pack up my 2 year old, 2 month old, and husband for a move from ND to TX, but I know it'll be worth it. 

      Thanks to everyone on the board for all the advice, especially for urging me to seek out a specialist.

                            Hi Ashley,  Good luck with the fight.  My family and I live here in Houston (Pearland, TX).  If you need anything please feel free to reach out.  My husband goes to MD Anderson for his follow-up care.  Also, I'm  a librarian here at University of Houston and recently one of our librarians became a senior librarian at MD Anderson so we have some research avenues available to us.   Good luck.
