Good news today. My melanoma was caught early, so no need for a lymph node biopsy. If any more come back melanoma and are deeper, then they will do a lymph node biopsy. Loved, loved, loved the first doc (plastic surgeon); not so much the second doc. So, going with the first doc: He wants to remove 5 moles that look most suspicious, and then if any come back atypical he will do a wide excision on the bad ones. Then, he will remove another 5 until an entire batch of 5 come back normal.
I will call the plastic surgeon tomorrow to set up my appointment to have the one lesion removed by a wide excision and then the 5 moles that look suspicious will be biopsied.
