      Did reschedule for 7/23, the only thing left on my left arm is a 6mm wide barely noticeable pink scar…

      The dry patch on my face was stinging a good deal on Tues/Wed, now that stopped too… I had put some colloidal silver on it, still have the dry patch, but whatever was making sting must’ve been killed. TY!!

      Thanks SA, I postponed till 7/23, if it doesn’t grow back I will pass it off as an anomaly. I was hoping that maybe they’d let me drop off the frozen specimen in my freezer and biopsy that, no need to put a whole in my arm when it’s healed, I have VERY skinny arms.

      I did read that in rare circumstances, melanoma can completely regress without any treatment because the immune system strengthened and killed it. It was a gnarly looking aggressive growth, but it also could have been a keratoacanthoma………….. TY!!

      Thanks Cynthia – we’re a bit busy at work, so I rescheduled for July, figuring if it grows back, then I will already “be in line” with an appt 🙂
