Hi there
I have just had the same as you my WLE was on my shin and the SNB was in left groin but all the same… I came out of theatre just fine felt like I had been through nothing but I got swelling in at the SNB site after about 7 days due to lymph gathering in the empty space I think this all happened because I didnt rest enough I went walking which aggrevated it and got on with everything as normal so a lesson was learnt to take it wasy otherwise you only extend the recovery time.. I did get an infection in the excision site too so be very careful cleaning or changing the dressings 🙂 this was my second surgery as this was a recurrence at the same site but it made no difference all was totally recovered from 4 years ago.
I am sorry I dont know anything about melanoma on the ear just about the procedure as I have just had it ..
good luck and I will be thinking of you

thank you so much for replying to be 🙂 and yes I am suprised after much research that interferon has been prescribed with neg nodes I think that is my main unsure block.. I just get the remark well it was a local recurrence but this doesnt seem enough to me… I am trying to get an opinion from my original consultant in the UK too.. I hope that you are doing ol for know and that you continue to do so ..
thank you again
