High grade melanoma

My husband has been referred to plastics following an appointment, that was to assess a small legion on his forehead.

he has an appointment on Monday. He’s just been on line to order his medication and has seen a letter, which says high grade melanoma and that the letter should not be uploaded to his medical notes as he may not know the diagnosis.

what does this mean? 

thank you. Jan 

  • Hi there Jan and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear about your husband and that he saw a medical report on his NHS record before speaking with his doctor.

    I hope by now your husband has had his appointment and you both have a better understanding of the results and what this means for him moving forwards.

    Please get back in touch if you would like to ask any more questions or speak to one of us on the phone. Our number is 0808 800 4040 and we're here weekdays 9-5.

    Wishing you both all the best

    Naomi
