Hi, I have just found out that I have secondary melanoma. 3, tumours (are they tumours???) , in my lungs. Previously . I have had a mole removed on my back and lymph nodes in both arms. Only one lymph node had cancerous cells, measuring less than a mm. This secondary cancer has been found 16 months after the primary cancer was removed. I don’t appear to have any other symptoms and feel really well. I’m just flabbergasted that this is in my body. I have asked Dr Google as I await for an oncology appointment and further scan. This has proven to be a nightmare, one minute I will definitely not be here and the next I could. Just wanted to reach out.
