Spotting a melanoma short actual story of my husband.

He went for a check up at the Dermatologist I had been seeing for a number of years.

Looking him all over, husband standing naked, the doctor turns to me asking how long has your husband had this?

Looking at it the mark it was not remarkable, it was a freckle.

NO! he says, I don't like the look of it.

The location of this 'freckle' was about four inches above the elbow and covered by a shirt sleeve!

No the sun is not always the issue with skin cancer he says.

These lesians can be anywhere on the body, covered all the time by clothing.

Yes it was a cancerous melanoma, yes he did have to see a plastic surgeon who operated within days.

Yes he has had numerous check ups since and still has to annually.

Another melanoma can come to any part of the body now.

The 39 year old visited the Emergency room 4 times in one week

If you're thinking about busting out the barbecue before winter arrives, make sure your wire-bristle brush is still in good nick before using it to scrub down the grill.

Surgeons are warning of the potential dangers of loose wire bristles after a 39-year-old man on the New South Wales Coffs Coast accidentally swallowed one at a barbecue and had it pulled out of his pancreas more than a week later.

"This is the first case that has ever been reported in the world and it's in Australia," said Dr Rafael Gaszynski, the general surgery trainee who made the finding.

 Hi Attila

If you happen to look in, here's some great medical news:

{On the original Star Trek, Dr. McCoy (a.k.a. “Bones”) carried a sensory device called a tricorder to record and relay medical information. Soon, thanks to Qualcomm’s $10 million XPrize competition, that neat fictional gadget could become a health care reality.

Over the last five years, teams from the U.S., the U.K., Canada, India, and Taiwan have competed to develop their own functional tricorders—portable tools able to diagnose health conditions and take real-time vital signs like blood pressure.

The winning design will be announced in early 2017, with the hope that, eventually, individuals will be able to use it at home, “to assess and manage their health independent of a hospital or doctor’s office.” Live long and prosper, indeed.}
