        This is great news! I have my 3 month PET on Thursday and I have been feeling so crappy that I’m scared to even hear the results. I really appreciate your post. Prayers to you for continued NED status. I’m ready to get my life back ❤️

          Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to hear. My joints are swollen today and my mood is up and down. I really appreciate you sharing. Thoughts and prayers for continued positive progress. I have my three month PET scan Thursday and am terrified as usual.

            Thank you ! Oncologist said there was no hyperactivity seen in the tiny lung nodule and it was on the images of the previous pet scan, just not noted on the report. He said it’s not of concern for now. He believes the groin nodes are reactive to the recent infection in my WLE  upper thigh site? Nonetheless he said treatment would be the same if they did contain melanoma? So true, these were done in two totally different places. Opdivo was quick and painless. I’m trusting him as much as possible. I’ve been told Moffitt is one of the best places I can be. Hope I can slide through this year as uneventfully as possible. Prayers for you alwYs ❤️

                Thank you! What did your seroma feel like when it started shrinking? Was it hard?

                  So sorry that I am just now seeing this. Margins were clear, they removed 2 lymph nodes which were negative (thank goodness), however major anxiety has taken over my life and I freak out about everything. Hoping it gets better with time. How did your surgery go? Results?

                                    I was told Stage 2 before I had the WLE, but I have been told since then that I am Stage 1b as the breslow was 1.5mm with no ulceration. It was on my right outter thigh.
