Hi I was just diagnosed with stage 1 melanoma and it is 0.8. Doc is recommending lymph biopsy as a precaution. Any body have 0.8 what is your experience??
Mine was .9 and I have the SLNB and have not regretted it once. It just gives some reassurance if there is nothing there but there have been cases even with a low bresliw there could be microscopic cells in the lymphnodes.
