      Just had my fourth MIS. Curious if anyone out there has had some many. Got my first one 12 years ago. My skin seems to go active every 3-4 years.

          I have had 3 melanomas – one in situ, one stage T1a spitzoid type, and one in situ (was labeled probable melanoma). My only advice is to stay on top of your skin exams and take lots of pictures of your skin. It’s great that yours were caught as in situ
