        Wow – you are sharp!! I have an appointment with my new doctor this Friday – a melanoma specialist.  In addition to the about 30 questions I have written down to ask him, I now have an additional one – Can my positive sentinel node still be tested for the presence of immune cells? Thanks again for finding something I couldn't find or overlooked.

            No prob! Certainly a question I'd be asking! Take the abstract with you so he'll know YOU know what you're talking about. I wish you luck. C
