Hi all, i had a 0.3 melanoma removed with a wle at the end of last year. The plastic surgeon said it appeared the 0.3 lesion was removed in the biopsy and what was left was in situ. The surgery was successful. You will probably think i am getting in a state over nothing, but i am getting in a state about getting another melanoma. I suffer with depression and anxiety and being outdoors is so important to my mental health. I have read that you must cover up all skin, but i love walking and gardening. I have invested in a good suncream and do not intend to ever sit in the sun. My walks i can manage so that i am in shaded areas but obviously will have some time in the sun. It is a lovely day today and i am longing to go in the garden. How do you all manage. Do you dare to wear a short sleeved tshirt, albeit covered in sunscreen for a short time. Am i over thinking it?
