Hi @Wal2330
I'm really sorry to hear you are going through this. Having melanoma return like it has is incredibly hard and it makes total sense that your mind is swinging between hope and fear right now. Thank you for sharing this with us. The waiting between appointments for news, plans, results and next steps can be one of the toughest parts to all this. So... it's completely normal your thoughts might roller coaster around - it doesn't mean you're not coping, just that you're human.
Please know you don't have to carry this on your own. If at any time you'd like to talk things through with someone who understands cancer care and the emotional side of waiting, Cancer Council's health professionals are available on 13 11 20. You may find one of our telephone support groups for metastatic melanoma would be beneficial to support you?
Perhaps someone else in the community has been through something similar? What tips would you give to @Wal2330 right now?
Here's a resource on Immunotherapy that might help understand treatment options better also.
Stay strong,
Miranda
