Has anyone had any experience with PDT - Photodynamic Therapy
A friend recently told me about an AARP article that talked about the promising use of Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) on treating melanomas. Does anyone have any experience with this intervention? It looks like I'll be having surgery for an in situ melanoma on my upper arm (I was just diagnosed and although I haven't met with a surgeon yet my dermatologist says I should have it removed) and I'm wondering if this should be an option.Thanks for any thoughts...
