      Someone wanted to know the diagnosis.

      0.1mm Breslow thickness, Clark level 2, present at lateral edges

      has anyone had a similar  melanoma? If so I would like to know how yours turned out after surgery.       Thanks

          This is an extremely thin and very low risk lesion.  Most likely never deal with it again.  Watch for CHANGE from your other moles – more likely to have a new primary than a recurrence from this one.

                      I wish insurers would feel the same way.   I had a similar diagnosis few years ago and now can’t get life insurance because of it.
