      Hi

      This is my first experience with a melanoma site.  I was diagnosed with Anal Melanoma in March of this year.  After many trips to the Doctors it was determined that the cancer has not spread at this time.   My lesion was quite big on the melanoma scale 6.75 mm Can anyone share their experience with stage one Anal Melanoma?

          Jean, you have posted this on the off-topic board, which is notoriously quiet on the weekends. Try the main board instead, where you are much more likely to get a reply.

              Yes, please post on the main bulletin board instead of the off topic board.  Not that many people read this board and you'll do better over on the other board.

              Also, search for posts by JerryFromFauq who also has anal melanoma.  His profile is:

              Anal melanoma is rare and not a lot of people on this board have that type.  But Jerry is a good resource.
