I hope things calm down for you. Reg...What a day! I hope things calm down for you. Regarding the melanoma stuff, since you have been keeping on top of your visits with the dermatologist, like me, I gotta think that any moles that are biopsied at this point - if they are anything - are going to be early stage and not require much other than the wide excision. As I mentioned, I found that second melanoma several years after the first but it was in situ and was resolved without any further follow up (other than a giant scar from the wide excision). Now, wide excisions are not "fun"...but, in the scheme of things, they are just a bump in the road. So, I *try* not to get too worked up about any of it any more.... In fact, it is my hope that now that I'm taking care of my health with regular check-ups from any and all specialists (mammograms, bloodwork, dermatologist, etc.), if anything is actually detected, it will be in the early stages....so I try not to waste any more mental energy on worrying about things... (easier said than done, but that is what I try to do).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
