Janner, 

I was hoping you would chime in!  You always have good advice.  I am 33 years old.  I have had a few other Spitz nevi removed along the way.  I initially considered getting a second opinion when I had the first Spitz (2009) but my surgeons all have the utmost confidence in our DermPath.  I am an RN in Plastic Surgery at a large University teaching hospital.  Apparently our main DermPath (the guy who reads my stuff) is well-known.  I was told he is sent stuff from the armed forces to read.  So I feel pretty confident in him.  Thoughts?

Thank you Michael!  I guess the long and short of it is to be vigilent in sun protection (which I am) and do frequent skin checks (which I do).  I really appreciate the feedback!

Thank you so much for the insight!  I have learned that reading too much can have a tendency to make a person go crazy!  I guess I am being overly cautious with the whole PET/CT thing so I wanted everyone's "expert opinion"  Thanks again!!
