Melanoma on arm

I too had a melanoma on my arm, which was removed by WLE  last December.  I also had an SLNB.   Like you, I was told that there was no evidence of spread. However, that doesn’t stop you worrying, and what I found was that I would start panicking about any type of new mark, all of which have turned out to be quite harmless (like a skin reaction under my watch strap). In the past, common sense would have told me that it was exactly that, and I wouldn’t have worried, unless it failed to disappear. However, having had a melanoma, we’re on high alert and tend to think the worst of everything we see.  It’s only now that I’m beginning to be able to leave a new mark for a few weeks, and usually it disappears on its own. Obviously, if it doesn’t,  then I seek advice.

You’re  seeing a doctor tomorrow night which is great, so you don’t have long to wait.  I really hope that it isn’t anything suspicious.    Easy to say from à fellow worrier, but try not to worry!
