        Thanks Bill. I’m working on it. I believe Dr Nair at Lehigh Valley Hospital is a melanoma specialist and he is who I am seeing. I am just interested in a second opinion.

                Actually that is where my tumor was sent. Sloan Kettering did testing for over 400different types of mutations. I had about 25 but the driver is the braf.
