        DO NOT TAKE BACK TO THIS DR>!!!  In March my friend went to Roswell hospital for his 9 yr. check up after having Melanoma on his back.    All these yrs no scans.  So this past March he was told "congratulations sir!!!"  you are cancer free.   In June this same Dr. said I am sorry to tell you , you are stage IV with tumors in lung, kidney and stomach.  Its like , what the hell is wrong with these people.  I would demand a yearly PET scan, just my opinion, I dont trust the lot of them

        Good Luck!!!
