Complications

People with metastatic melanoma may not feel like eating especially if they are uncomfortable or tired. Foods may taste different than they did previously. Poor appetite, nausea, or vomiting are all side-effects of melanoma. Good nutrition however often helps people with cancer feel better and have more energy. However, only a small percentage of melanoma diagnosed yearly are metastatic. Waiting for these symptoms to appear before seeking professional exam is not recommended.
