Hello All,
I just received word that my biopsy showed that a mole was a Melanoma. The long and short of it is that it is below the magic 0.75mm depth, though not far. The other good news was that the pathologist and doctor both agree that it is very contained with none of the other "magic" details that lead to greater concern.
I've reached out to the famous Dr. Bruce (Today) and plan to enlist his help if he will have me. Once I speak with him, I hope to share as much as is allowable or advisable regarding the process I go through. There are many stories, threads, and points of data online, none of which have truly helped me measure what my level of aviation concern should be for the type of diagnosis I have. I hope that my telling of the process is helpful for others.
Stay Tuned.
