  • apid diagnostic clinic not so rapid, 
  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I'm sorry to read that you've recently been diagnosed with melanoma and I remember how I felt all over the place when told.

    How did your appointment with dermatology go? Hopefully the consultant was able to answer all your questions. Do you have a treatment plan yet or do you have to wait for the scan results?
