Hi, my name is Terri. I am not in active therapy right now, since I have been in so many trials, and treatments:
interferon, biochemotherapy (twice), Til, and Yervoy. My Doctor is doing the “wait and see” approach…next scan in August…but that isn’t my problem. My problem is constant pain. My oncologist and rheumatologist says it is fibro. I wonder if it isn’t from damage from all the IL-2 and chemo. It is pain like electricity under my skin. My fingers swell. I get grumpy. I am on Norpramin, Ultram, Tylenol, and a bunch of vitamins and herbals. Has anyone had anything like this? has anything worked? It is really messing me up. I do have active melanoma tumors in my thigh and my abdomen. thanks.
