Moles and Skin Cancer

Well Im digging this thread up again cos Im going back to the doctors.

I never went back to the consultant 4 months after the first time I saw him, cos I didnt get anything from the hospital with an appointment like I was suppose to. Anyway there was no change so I just left it cos it would have been pointless anyway and this was way back in jan/feb

So.......the thing is now about a month 2 months, I spotted 2 little white spots on the mole they are quite small and visible. Anyway a week ago I told my mum cos they havent gone away. I was suppose to go yesterday but they had to change my appointment and I couldnt go today cos I had an exam so im going on wednesday
I just wanna go and get it sorted now and see whats up cos I think I can see another 1 or maybe 2 appearing

Hope all goes well, and you get some peace of mind about it Tabs! :)

I am sure there is a simple explanation to the white spots and your mind will be put at ease. All the best xxx

I'm sure it will be nothing serious Abbie. Let's know how you get on.

Went to the doctors, Im going to go back to the hospital he said I was the 3rd person he had to get in touch with the hospital cos they didnt follow up with the second appointment

Oops I forgot to come back to this thread. I saw the specialst at the hospital again and he said like the other one said before it looks like a birth mark mole. The size was the same which was good and no other serious things wrong. I obviously have to be very careful in the sun with it but its covered anyway.
They wont remove it unless they thought it was harmful cos of where it is horrible things would happen. It cut a long list short it would be like plastic surgery gone wrong
So anyways he told me to take a picture of it every 1-2 months so I can doument it and he gave me a ruler thingy to measure it proerply and for it to be in the photo as well
And they also gave me a leaflet on what to look for

glad nothing was wrong :)

Good news, pleased for you :)
