        Megan has had the Yervoy and it did nothing for the brain mets. They came back within 4 months post surgery while she was doing Ipilinumab treatments every 3 weeks.
        Thank you for your post. I will check into the linked site you posted.
        Thanks

                                I am not sure if she is BRAF + or not. I asked my son and he was not sure either. Guess you have to know what to ask before you can ask it. Thank you for your response. Everything that is posted gives me mor paths to check on and I appreciate it! I will check on the things you have brought up. They sound hopeful!
                                God bless
