      Has anybody had their Melanoma Specialist do the biopsy? I woke up the other day and unintentionally scratched my leg and clear liquid came out. I was surprised and looked at my leg which looked like a collapsed blister. My original melanoma looked like a blister also but I think it was solid. Now the area has a scar which is healing fast. Anyways, I hope this isn't a spread of melanoma or a new one. I don't know what else it could be?? I know I didn't have anything on my leg the day before I found this.

      I took a picture of it and drew around it with a pen, since the scabs will probably be healed by Monday. I have an app't Monday with the Melanoma Specialist to check on the seromas and I'm thinking maybe she can do a biopsy then. Otherwise, it's back to the Dermatologist.
