      Hi, I had a stage 1b melanoma removed from my mid upper back about a year ago.  For the last couple of months I have been experiencing some pain my upper back around the scapulas.  When I stretch it does appear to relieve the pain so I don't know if I just pulled my back or if I should pursue this further with my doctor.  It's a dull pain and it comes and goes.  Anyways has anyone experienced this? Thanks Mark

          I would say that, since being dianosed with melanoma, every ache or pain is well worth having checked by a doc if only for a little peace of mind.
