Question
wingnut73
Long story made short. I am SC for skin cancer. In 2012 a biopsy by va was benign, another in 2013 wae benign. The skin spot kept getting larger. I requested an outside consult and a biopsy then was malignant desmoplastic melanoma and the pathologist recommended immediate surgery to remove it. The VA went back and redid the old slides and the new report was changed to agree with the outside consult doctor.The VA waited for over a month to remove it and also did a lumpectomy (sp) to remove what they call sentinel nodes.
The pathology report on this is not back yet but I expect the worse.
I want to try to be as legally prepared as I can in advance, to leave my family in a little better shape.
