[quote=Anonymous]I went to see the dermatologist for something different and casually mentioned a new mole that appeared. The doctor, who I have known for 12 yrs and is very laid back, seemed a bit alarmed. He said he had to biopsy it asap. It was the size of a pen point and very black and yet already slightly raised. I have had more than a few burns in my life from narrow band uvb light treatments for a different skin disorder. His reaction really frightened me because not only is he considered to be the best derm dr in nova, he's usually so easygoing. At my appointment he was different. I had a friend many years ago who ignored a blackish mole on her back for a few yrs. She used to lie out in the sun with her kids by her pool. By the time she got it biopsied it was too late. She died about a year later. So worried its melanoma. Could use some words of advice, support.[/quote]
