Hi i am genreally a bit of a worrier anyway.
I am quite a moley person,anyway i have had a new mole appear on my face,it looks normal colour etc but the thing is it wasnt there last year?? Anyway my main concern is a mole i have on my lower leg,i think i caught it a couple of weeks ago and it did bleed.Now the mole has gone kind of "bity" thats the only way i can desccribe it really,kind of dotty.It also feels more raised than usual but im not sure if its just me being all neurotic.
Anyway i am going to see my gp tomorrow but im already convienced i have skin cancer and that im going to die,im thinking all morbid thoughts.
What i want to know is what the process is,if i have this mole cut out (which i htink i more than likely will) are you put to sleep? Does the doc do it there nad then? Then what happens? It gets sent where? If it does come back as a Melonoma? Is that it? What are the recovery rates? What do you have to have done then? Im so scared and im really panicking so if anyone has some advice i would really appreciate it???
I know it doesnt look right so i think i will ask to have it cut out.
Im female 26 and have a 1 year old daughter all i kep thinking is i really dont want to leave her,all i keep thinking is i dont want to die,i know some of you will probably think im just a lunatic,but im so scared.Please any advice.
I am from the uk.
