A member asked:
If i have stage 4 melanoma, does that increase my chances of getting breast cancer or another form of cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not all that signifi: It does not increase the risk. So i would ask you not to worry any more than you already are if you have stage 4 melanoma. I hope you are not confusing it with level-4 melanoma which means non- metastatic melanoma(curable) as opposed to metastatic melanoma(stage-4) which is less commonly curable.
