Ocular Cancer (Melanoma of the Eye). I would like to hear from other people who have had or have the same problem.

Hi Freckles,
I hope you are all good, I was diagnosed with the same last november and got radiology treatment. i know you were looking for support back than I am at the same place now.
Hello,
I hope you are well, I have recently being diagnosed with the same and am currently in recovery from my second surgery, I'm struggling to find support or others that have been through or are going through this.
Kind Regards
Hi all! I hope it is not too late to reply to you. It was a shock when my husband was diagnosed with ocular melanoma in 2017. We had never heard of it. There are many support groups throughout the world (US, UK, Europe, Australia). There is also a group for people in Ireland. I am the Admin for a Facebook support group of Irish ocular melanoma patients and their families. Please feel free to join our group. OcuMelIrl https://www.facebook.com/groups/194087644399029
Dear Freckles,
I see that you have not received any response from other posters, I hope that you will hear from someone soon. In the meantime please feel that you can contact us on the National Cancer Helpline on Freefone 1 800 200 700 where you can speak with a specialist cancer nurse confidentially. The lines are open from Monday to Thursday 9am -7pm and 9am-5pm on Fridays.
