@birdman518 Mitch, we knew this might be the result. We were hoping it wasn't, though. Having had melanoma once before, you kinda know the drill of what will be happening.
Absolutely, PMA and NGU should be on repeat in your brain. Are you comfortable with your medical team? You should be hearing from them what Clark level it is [how deep] and the stage. All of this will help guide them and you in the treatment decisions. Will you let me know what they say on Tuesday, please?

Thanks, Ginger. I absolutely will let everyone know. I will doubtless have more questions as well, especially if my presented options are immunotherapy.
Today I am going for brain and other scans (I think they said "full body"). So Tuesday will be the big day. I have been assigned to a different doctor than the one who did the removal from my head.. his name is Ahmad Tarhini, and his CV seems pretty good. Of course Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa is also considered one of the best in the country.
