        So… I have just had the pathology results come back clear. I have had PET scan, CT scan and Lymphoscinigraphy done all within a week of being diagnosed. I also had a 2cm wide excision with a complex flap. About 30 staples and stitches.

        Everything has come back clear so far, I have to have 4 month ultrasounds for the next 2 years. I hope this is he end of melanoma for me for now. Very full on month and very emotional. Thank for your responses and anything else or info on what could happen would still be appreciated. Thanks

            hey all. …. 

             

            So it has been 10 months and I'm back with a enlarged sentinel node in my neck, I'm waiting my biopsy results and I'm not confident. 

             

            Can anyone share any stories about an enlarged node this far out after initial discovery of their melanoma. 

             

            I have had regular ultrasounds and check in the last 10 months.

             

            i am a little worried and don't know what to expect.

             

            thanks in advance
