Diagnosed yesterday with melanoma. Due to get an MRI and a PET scan soon. Do get the results there and then or do you have to wait?

    Hi [@Tickle11]‍ 

    sorry to hear your news. As far as I know you don't get the scans straight away. I'm awaiting a dermatologist appointment as I have been referred under the two week window due to a mole that's itchy and sore. 
    Hope you are ok as can be and I know it's the waiting that is the hardest x
