Melanoma

P&H · February 11th, 2007, 16:51

A friend of mine who is a 121 guy found out a mole that he had for a few weeks was melanoma. Caught it early, had it removed, still waiting on the status of whether or not it spread (most probably not).

Does anyone know if this is the kind of thing that will keep your medical suspended for months on end until the Feds finally give it back, or is it one of those things you simply tell your AME with a letter from your dermatologist/surgeon saying that everything's fine now and then you can get your medical..?
