My name is Tracey and I’ve recently been diagnosed with stage1a melanoma. Had a WLE 4 November and awaiting ultrasound on my neck due to two swollen lymph nodes. Struggling emotionally since diagnosis but feel guilty as prognosis is good.
Hey lovely - I have stage 2a and due to have my WLE on Monday along with my SLNB - feeling a little anxious - but I guess it is what it is now - I can’t control it so have to roll with it. Have up and down days (diagnosed Sept) but the mole has been removed and they were confident they’d removed it all - you got this and we’re all here to help xx
Hi Tracey never apologise for being emotional.. this melanoma journey is mad!! I have stage 4 melanoma and I started off so strong but recently I can cry opening a packet of crisps catching this early is best.. since being diagnosed I personally feel best thing is to tell people around you for support .. sending love and hugs ️
