        Diagnosed Stage 3 in 1998.  Aside from a local recurrence in 2000, I was NED until 2011 when it was found in my lungs.  After trying several recently FDA approved drugs, my PET scan last showed that I am NED again.  These new drugs give hope to us all!  Hang in there all!

              I so agree.  After the bacterial infections, I was so bummed to hear that I couldn't go back on the keytruda (before the last scan which showed NED) and my doctor said my next option would be chemo again which might help.  This would have been my 3rd time doing chemo and losing my hair and feeling like crap so I'm doubly thankful..  This will be the best Thanksgiving ever.

                    I know how little hope I had when I was diagnosed at stage 3 and how much more devastating it was at stage 4 but with all the new drugs out there, I truly do believe there will one day be a true cure.  I wish there were more positive stories out there like mine.  Don't get me wrong, I know I'm not out of the woods but buying time is a great thing!

                          I was very impressed with her and she renewed my faith in Mayo being a reputable melanoma clinic.  Cheers to Keytruda!

                                My scan was 2 weeks after my third infusion which seems way too early to quit but we'll see what Mayo has to say.  I'm also going to call Chicago University to see what trials they may have going that I may be eligible for.
