In Treatment For 18mths Now And Dr. Is Talking About Stopping Treatment. I Have Been Stable For 15 Months.

A MyMelanomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Levittown, PA

Stage 4 with tumor in adreanal gland (right) and left lymph node tumor. These tumors have been stable and I am starting to have extreme itching. Dr. is talking about me stopping treatment. States studies have shown there maybe no benifits of staying on treatment after 1st year. I am worried that yes ct scans show no growth in either tumor but are they dead tissue or still cancer. This decision is mine and I dont know what I should do.
