          I did not have either.  It was watch and wait because margins were clear on original excision and then lymph nodes were also clear.

            Thank you so much Ed. I really didn't know where to begin.  I came across this forum when I first had mole on head removed and then SLNB 2016. Nodes were all negative.  Fall of 2017 small lump appeared.

            I appreciate all the information provided on this forum. People are very kind and compassionate.

            Thanks K

              I am stage 3b. Targeted drugs would be given on compassionate application, not a trial
