I got a call from my surgeon thats doing my surgery on next Tuesday and said that a mole i had removed during the visit to go over the surgery to get clean margins on a couple atypical moles came back positive for melanoma. Talk about a punch in the face I was asleep when he called and basically just kind of was stunned after he told me that it was back and almost a year to the day as I found out Oct 20,2011 that i had melanoma the first time that had spread to a lymph node.

I'm guessing we caught it alittle earlier this time as he said we are just gonna have to take some more off my ear on next Tuesday. I called after i gathered myself to see if they can send me a copy of the pathology report. It was just a huge slap in the face as it was a newer mole but didn't fit the abcde category he just removed it to be safe and I'm glad he did. So I'm scheduled also to see my oncologist monday morning then, pre-op monday at lunch and then surgery on tuesday fun times.
