      Thank you for the quick response. His original site was on the back left side of trunk (left kidney area); SNB showed mets to lymph nodes in left axcillary and were surgically removed.  Last week, before I noticed these new spots,  I made him see a dermatologist who, even though aware of his medical history, gave my husband only a cursory body check. We were not happy. I will have him see his former dermatologist, though he is a 3 hour drive away. Thank you.
