Hi there,
I had a WLE done one week ago for a malignant melanoma that has been diagnosed after first excision as stage 1 in situ. It was on my left thigh just above my knee on the outside of my leg. The melanoma whilst not thick was 14 x 5mm in length and breadth and had been like that for at least one and a half years.
What is concerning me is that since about two days ago (max) I have started to get sore glands/lymph nodes in my left knee (at the back), high up on my buttocks/hips, by my pectorals (especially tender on the left side) and at the nape of my neck. I have also been experiencing nausea intermittently.
I am still awaiting the histology results of the new tissue taken and although the doctors advised it should be clear, I am concerned with these new developments. My doctor is currently away so I am not sure if this is something I should alert him to or just par for the course?
Your advice would be much appreciated.
Warm regards,
Natalie
