Hi
I am 6 weeks post op for WLE and sentinel lymph node biopsy. Healing well and biopsy negative thankfully. However one area of my tumour has very close margins and a re-excision is recommended. I'm devastated to go back to square one after getting through the op and healing process. Has anyone else had this happen? Is it less invasive? Awaiting consultant appointment to discuss but re-excision and margins weren't on my list of stuff to worry about and has taken me by surprise.
Best Wishes
Ollie
Hi Ollie2 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 it's been recommended to have a further operation and I can totally understand your feelings about having to start again.

While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'.
