Hi Janty- so sorry to hear what you’re going through at the moment, it’s a really stressful time which I can certainly relate to.

 I, too, was told by my GP that I had a BCC (without tests, just by looking at it) & that I was being referred to a Dermatologist for further tests,  The wait for the appointment seemed endless but when I finally got to see the Consultant, she looked at it through a magnifying glass & told me that just by looking she could tell it wasn’t a BCC, that I didn’t need a biopsy or any further treatment & that I was discharged! So, in short, sometimes GPS jump the gun with their diagnosis without involvement from any of the relevant specialists or appropriate tests.  I know it’s hard but try to wait for the proper diagnosis before assuming the worst.  It sounds like you have a lovely partner who I’m sure will support you through this which is a massive help,  Good luck with the tests, & I hope you get a good outcome that will help to put your mind at rest,  Take care xx
