I have a mole on the side of my neck - kind of where a necklace would fall.
I've always had it, and have shown it to the Dr before, who said it looked fine.
Anyway, I noticed the other day that it was stinging and looked like it had been bleeding.
Went back to the GP and showed him, and straight away he said that it would have to come off. He measured it with a tape and said that he would send me to a dermatologist at the hospital and that I should have an appt within 2 weeks.
3 days later I got an appointment through for the following week - This Friday coming.
I'm literally making myself sick with worry that it may be a melanoma :cry:
Having said that, I remeber waking up a couple of nights before I noticed it was sore, and scratching my neck, catching the mole.
Anyway, whatever it is, it will have to come off - but worried about that too
