I'm 29, male and recently went to have a few moles checked as they didn't look normal. Straight away the doctor spotted a mole on my back that she didn't like the look of and she seemed to be examining it for ages.
she's referred me for a biopsy this Thursday, and she worded it like 'it's better to be safe but I'm not overly concerned, just want a second opinion.' But now my health anxiety is going nuts. It's on my back and I obviously never see what's back there - so I could have had it for years and not known.
in my head, I feel like too long has passed and I'm going to get an awful result.
i know I sound ridiculous but pretty much spent the last few days crying and not doing anything I enjoy because I'm scared.
has anyone here had a mole biopsy before? Hopefully you have something reassurance as I'm really really nervous!
thank you
