      My doc said my scans look great! The original lymph node is much smaller and much less reactive with the PET contrast. There is no evidence of spread to other areas.  I’m all set for neck dissection surgery in Melanoma Awareness Monday!!!

      i am hoping and praying the clinical trial continues to bring good results for the participants and we get additional treatments in our aresenal to fight this beast!

                    Great news Lucy,

                    sounds like an interesting trial and more importantly it's working. Good luck for Monday and a swift recovery from surgery. I'll let you know if I hear anything on Nras options, currently concentrating on ccnd1 gene with Palbociclib.

                    good luck

                    Tony
