              Definitely stay up on your scans for recurrence!! Staying on top of the disease is key with melanoma it's much more treatable when found early. Once you can find a specialist you may even want to consider doing a chemo just to kill any cells if they have traveled through the blood stream. My mom was clear after her first melanoma was caught but then re-occurred 1 year later, she also had an extremely aggressive case. Best of luck to you and luckily there are so many drugs that are out now to help you the odds are in your favor 🙂
