Moles

I went to doctors 9 weeks ago worried about a scabby mole on my leg he examined my back as had 2 itchy moles and he said he was worried about them 2 weeks later hospital rang me to say got my refferal to dermatology nut not heard anything since. Rang doctors but can't get an appointment only telephone which they told me to just wait nothing more they could do. Looking on this website I have a lot of symptoms and it's says they need removing within 6 weeks already over that what should I do

    I'm sorry you haven't heard anything from the hospital since they said they received the referral. I really do hope you get an appointment through soon but if you're worried, you could get in touch with the dermatology department to get an update and let them know you're willing to take any cancellations that come up as it may help bring your appointment forward.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in a similar situation will offer their thoughts and advice to you soon but if you'd like to discuss this with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
