      Thank you for responses. Encouraging to hear.  Surgery on for me on thursday…thumb removal and biopsy.  Initial PET scan did not show any spread.  However, still removing and biopsying lymphnodes.

      Yes there was initial trauma to the thumb.  I jammed the thumb on the side of the pool while swimming and buckled the nail so part of the nail seperated from the nailbed.  Thank you for the response.  Getting amputated next week.
