Welcome to the forum, Plantpot and thank you for sharing your experience with us.

I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis. This must be a worrying time for you, especially given your family history.

While I can’t think of any member who has had spitzoid melanoma, I really hope that others with similar experiences will be along soon to offer their insights and support.

In the meantime, if you're feeling anxious about your other moles or would like some guidance, you might find it helpful to speak to our team of nurses. They're available on 0808 800 4040 from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, if chatting with someone with a medical background might help ease your mind.

I hope everything works out for you, Plantpot, but please remember we're always here if you need a chat.

All the best,
Renata, Cancer Chat Moderator

Thanks have been to the clinic today, to have a other margin of skin took away... It is always the waiting that is the worst... Not heard of anyone else who has had this type cancer
