      I was diagnosed with an insite oral melanoma that was removed in March, 2015 and recently had another tumor removed from my soft palate on Aug 20.    Going for a follow up tomorrow and I'm worried about results.

                    You are bound to be scared it is normal but it is not nice, however you have had one successfully removed so this should be just the same.

                     

                    I am scared too because I am waiting for the results of my biopsy. It is terrifying I know so I am with you all the way and will send positive thougts to you.

                     

                    Let us know how you get on.

                                  Just got back from the dr.  It went great!  the malignant tumor that we removed had clear margins andt the other 4 suspicious sites that were biopsied all came back benign!     He's going to review with the "tumor board" but he doesn't think there will be a need for radiation (which I hear does not work on melanoma) or chemo.

                                  I feel like I just won the lottery!
