        I checked in with my oncologist and he said brain scans aren’t advised for my type of melanoma. Brain scan monitoring with skin melanomas is more the typical practice (that’s my layman translation at least).

        Are there any people on this forum dealing specifically with Type 2 Uveal Melanoma? I’d love to connect with some people in the same boat as me.
