Answers:
I am currently dealing with stage 3 melanoma!. I doubt it is from chemo, besides they normally do not use chemo for melanoma, but Interferon!.
Three options:
1) Could be a result from the surgery, AKA drainage and fluid build up!.
2) An non-malignant tumor
3) The melanoma has metasized!.
I hope she is going to the onocologist v/s her regular doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
