        He has had several brain MRI's.  They are all clear. We just got back from MDA.  The doctors seem to think it may be some of the midication  he is on.  They have made some changes to his medication but I was just wondering if it could be a side effect of the Yervoy treatment.

              My husband has stage 4 melanoma and we have been going to MDA in Houston.  Very happy with the doctors and all the employees.

                    I was just wondering who the medical dr and surgeon was that you saw at MD Anderson.  My husband has been going there since Jan. 2014 and we kind of have the same situation.  Medical dr is wanting surgery.  Surgeon is very hesitant.

                          They did say the last time we were there that his Thyroid level was a little low.  I will make sure that I talk with the DR''s when we go back next week.  His blood pressure doesn't get very low, but lower than normal.

                           

                           

                          Thanks for the response.

                                I have tried to get him to go talk with someone about everything, but he won't do it.  He says he has a hard time talking.  They suggested counseling at MDA, but he said he didn't need it.
