They did that procedure today and it wasn't too bad for the most part. He also took off 2 more "suspicious" moles to have them checked. I now have another scar to add to my collection. And the local is wearing off. Ugh thats the worse. Thanks for your concern and support it really helps.

Good, Keep us "informed" you remain in my prayers. So are you done with it all now?

Yes Melanie, please keep us informed, I hope its all over with now, My prayers are with you sweetie

Just an update. I got all of my results back and everything is negative. And they removed all of the cancer from the site on my arm. I have to go in on Monday and get the stitches removed. Yuck. Not looking forward to that. But he basically told me that if he hadn't removed that spot it would have been fatal in about a year.

Omigosh Melanie, how wonderful they removed all of it!! What a scary situation to go through. I'll keep praying for your continued health sweetie.

Glad that you are going to be okay now!

Oh man, I'm so sorry I didn't see this before now I'm glad they removed it all and your going to be ok!

Oh me too Anna...I'm glad they removed it all and She is going to be ok also! I just saw this as well...

Thank everyone. Had the stitches taken out on Monday. Have to wear surry suiture(not sure if thats corect) for a week and not lift anything over 5 lbs. I just have to keep an eye out now for unusal and new spots. People don't think much about their spots but man if I hadn't had gone in he said it would have been fatal in about 2-3 years. So I am making sure that everyone checks their skin. Especially light/fair skinned and light eyed people. He also said if its bigger than 6mm( 6 dimes high) basicall the size of this smiley or oddly shaped or dark or funny colored go have it checked out. Especially if you like to lay out in the sun or play a lot of sports. I am glad I am still here. And the procedure wasn't that bad. Just the shots were the worse So go have it done!!!!!

I'm so glad you are ok, ((((((((HUGS))))))))
