    Hi Paul, 

    Sorry to hear your diagnosis.

    l was diagnosed yesterday in a nevus clinic in Moorfields. Yet to see oncology to see what my options are, hopefully there are some. Yet to have MRI to see if I'm clear everywhere else, very scared. 

    I've read info on both procedures but it's only what Google says. It would be useful if you were able to share your experiences so far. 

    Thank you.
