        Just wanted to update everyone!

        Just got a call from the docs office and she informed me that the doctor wanted me know that the “Nevus was fully excised and no further treatment is needed”

        I did not ask for a copy of anything and am choosing to let this go and trust the doc. These past few days have been extremely difficult for me -couldn’t eat or sleep or think about ANYTHING else! I am also a recovering alcoholic and this was definitely a test of my sobriety! I am at peace now knowing that anything harmful or potentially harmful is out of my body.

        To everyone fighting this battle my thoughts and prayers are with you!!

          A little typo on my part! He said the next step after severely dysplastic would BE cancer. So I guess he meant if I let it go it would evolve in to cancer? He never brought up the word melanoma at all. I know I should have asked more but I figured if it was something serious to worry about I would have been told on the spot. I guess now comes the waiting game for the call but regardless of what the result is I will be asking for a copy of the full report!
