      Thanks Janner,

      A lot of great information. It even made sense of this confusing situation. I really appreciate the thought and energy you gave this as well as the hope for a longer chance for reoccurrance.

      Thanks for the reply,

      Yes it does say metestatic melanoma on both reports. The first report said spindle cell the 2nd report said high grade epithelioid malignancywhich the Dr says is another way to say spindle cell. I also saw some of the research on the desmoplastic and asked the Dr about that he said I don't have that…So confusing. The CC report also said significant pleomorphism and brisk mitotic activity.

      Sounds like the worst possible news to me however the Dr is very optimistic and in no hurry.

      Thanks again,
