Hi all I was diagnosed in February with melanoma and had SNLB and WLE in April. Unfortunately it was found in my lymph nodes. Had my scan yesterday and have appointments on 30th May with Dermatology and 21st June with Oncology. This seems a long wait for scan results is this the usual timeframe? Thanks
Hi, sorry to hear your news. Like yourself, I was diagnosed with melanoma in December 2023. I had my WLE and SLNB at the start of April 2024. I had my results at the start of May and it’s in my lymph nodes. I have my first oncology appointment tomorrow so a bit sooner but I can understand that it feels like a long time for you. Take care.

Thanks Katie hope your appointment goes ok today
