What's the best treatment for vaginal malignant melanoma stage 2-c ?


I have a vaginal malignant melanoma. the tumor is 2.5 cm. with ulceration. I made a surgery where ovaries, uterus, the posterior wall of the vagian and the rectum where removed. my doctor said i am of high risk of recurrence. he told me there is no treatment available now except interferon and he is not really sure about its proficiency. the recommended dose he suggested is 3 million to be injected under the skin three times a week. Please help me if there are other treatments and ,if not, is the 3 million interferon dose effective or not. i did the surgery two months ago. no lymph nodes were affected. waiting for your replies. thanks everyone

There is no cure for cancer, only treatment (that may lead to cure) . . so the fact that you are doing so well right now is a positive sign.

It is difficult for people unfamiliar with this disease to give you any type of advice. The best thing is to locate a support group with patients who have the same disease and ask them these questions.

You can try two different email support groups at ACOR (Association of Cancer Online Resources):

The Gynecological Cancers Online Support Group

Melanoma Support Group
