        Thank you!!! Granted, I have learned that spitz and melamona look so much a like under the scope. I don't know how to say this, the local doctors told us it WAS melanoma and said it was on the path reports….the Denver docs read the same reports and melanoma was NOT on them.  🙁 That is why I am just so confused and upset at our local clinic. 

         

        You can see where it was, but they don't have a clue how much is 5 mm or anything outside of the lesion. You can't just look at the scar and know where it was removed from. 

        I have seen so many people refer to Dr Bastian. How do I get in contact with him?? It almost seems like the best idea really. 

         

        Thanks again.
