I ama 25 yr old female who recently was diagnsed with stage III melanoma. In June I had a mole removed from my right breast. It was diagnosed to be malignant melanoma. A sentinel node biopsy was done, and three lymph nodes were removed. One came back to be cancerous. I then had 12 more from my right armpit area removed. One more came back cancerous. Now I am meeting with an oncologist to discuss options, possibly interferon. I also am having a CT scan done as well. I was scared at first but am determined to fight through all of this. I think I am pretty healthy, in the miltary, pretty active, and have faith. I hope all this will help. If anyone has any input or suggestions please respond.
