      Thank you so much for the advice Ann. Do you have any information on why is the SLNB not possible after the WLE? Our 2nd opinion Dr. is telling us it is possible and that he will just go through her exsisting scar? We are so confused and its so hard to find good information.

      Looks like we only have one melanoma specialist listed for our state and hes with the same group as her current Dr. I'll drive her to another state if i have too! Thank you for the link and any other information you can give us.
