Hi Mary39,
Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm very sorry to hear of your situation and I can of course understand this must be a worrying time.
It sounds like you're waiting to hear more about your diagnosis - hopefully it won't be too much longer to wait for that as I'm sure the uncertainty is only making things more difficult. When you hear more, you should also get an idea of any next steps involved, which should help in terms of providing some expectation and understanding of what's next.
At any point do discuss any concerns or questions you have with your doctor as necessary.
Try to take things one day at a time and keep looking after yourself. We're always here for support if you need it.
Wishing you all the best,
Ben

Hi Lynn I'm so sorry to hear that you have skin cancer aswell how did the wider operation and lymph nodes goes how do you feel now did you have to have any lymph nodes removed?
Hi Mary

I have my consultation on the 12 April
I have lots of questions in my head for them as I'm worried about it and the operation
will that be the next steps for you ? I will for sure let you and this forum know
can't fault the progress so far with the doctor and hospital
