It is very rare but the melanoma that started on my heel has now moved to my breast. Has anyone had this happen. I will find out next week after all the scans, what type of treatment is available. Everything I am reading says I have a 5 to 10 percent survival rate. That is scary and I would love to hear from anyone that is in similar situations.

    I had melanoma 14 years ago and am currently going through testing for bc....I don't know if mine are related or not, but think it would probably not be in my case. My thoughts are with you in your journey. Its all so very scarey, but know that you travel with many, many people that are also on *journey's* of our own. Hugs to you and healing thoughts. Vicki
