        I am so sorry for the pain you are going through. I can't offer any advice, or prognosis, as I am newly diagnosed myself, but my thoughts and prayers are with you and your travels this week..

                From the copy of the report, the 6x8mm size was the tumor size. The excision size was 5×3 cm. I had 3 more moles removed tomorrow, and though both of my Derm and Primary doc feel there is no more tests needed. I am uneasy. The Derm is also the Pathologist. I have been reading on the site, the cases that do re-occur.. That confuses me more.

                    Thank you very much! I can only hope to learn, and pass on that same advice to others.
