Hello Cammie2024,
I am sorry to hear you have found out that your skin cancer biopsy has proved to be malignant and stage 4. Having to wait now for 3 weeks for the appointment must be nerve racking as you are waiting to find out all the details and your treatment options. I hope that you will be seen very soon and that you will hear from other members of our community who have been in a similar place before.
I thought I would also give you our nurses' number if you wanted to ask them anything about the skin cancer you have been diagnosed with. You can reach them on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.
Best of luck with your appointment when it comes through. I hope it goes well and if you get a moment, don't hesitate to give us an update on what you find out and what treatment you might be having.
