Ive been told today the melanoma is stage 2TA but a “micro dot” was found so this means it is now stage 3. Dermatologist has now recommended a PET CT and a brain CT. I’ve no idea when I will be able to get these scans or why I need them. Does anyone know if these scans are routine for stage 3? I asked if I will still be getting a skin graft and SNB testing but she said I need to get the scans first. I honestly feel confused as everything I’ve read suggested WLE, and SNB as the next step and the dermatologist wasn’t very clear.
