Re: Scared that I may have skin mets

Marcia, so happy for your good news! Yea!!
I was in your exact same boat about a yr after my dx. Had this spot on my back that was there for about a month. I was pretty anxious, but the results came back benign. What was nice is that the dr's office left a message on my cell to have me call them, but they included in the message for me not to worry that the results were good. What a relief to hear those words!
