I've been referred on 2 weeks rule with a new asymmetrical black mark on my vulva. I am really catastrophising that it's a vulva melanoma and I just need to chat.

Welcome to the forum BexNellie although I'm sorry to hear how anxious you're feeling after receiving your 2 week referral.
I know this must be scary but if you can, try to distract yourself and stay calm until you know more. Much easier said than done, I know, but hopefully some of our members who have been through this will stop by soon to offer their support and advice.
I do hope you have managed to find some ways to calm your mind since making this post but if you're still struggling then I hope this guide we have on how to cope with the wait and the tips and advice provided by the NHS on how to manage anxiety will help.
We're thinking of you BexNellie and we'll have our fingers crossed everything will be o.k.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
