Yes my spouse found this interesting article on it. I guess I am not allowed to attach a PDF. You should be able to google it.

I also have heart problems, and tadalafil (aka Viagra) was found to be very beneficial to patients with pulmonary hypertension. We all know the other side effects. But this drug, tadalafil, really helped with my general fatigue and lack of energy. Got me back to feeling ‘normal’. Since I have been on 4 other experimental melanoma chemo drugs, it would be difficult to say which drug is causing my new melanomas. Since being on Zelborof, I have seen an uptick in squamous cell and melanomas on skin. My tumor generator is definitely in high gear. I get most of them radiated, due to comfort level. If I think Keytruda is working – I will suggest taking me off tadalafil.
For me it seems worth the risk.
