        I so agree with you. The doctors say put this behind you and go on but it is so very hard. It's been 2 yrs since original diagnosis, and little things keep popping up. The anxiety is really high right now. I'm not sure why things seem to be piling up now. I'm not sure how to talk about my situation no one seems to understand. I don't really know anyone personally with melanoma. I'm glad I found this board but sometimes it scares me.  I just have to get a handle on coping I guess.
