Suspicious Mole

Hi everyone 

l am looking for some advice please. I have recently discovered an existing mole on my side that has changed colour with darker spots and also gone crusty, I have rang my doctors and also done an online e-consult with pictures attached on Friday 28/7/2023.

I had a message this morning (Monday 31/7/2023) to contact the doctors, they informed me an appointment has been made for me for 2 weeks time, is this a good sign given to appointment is 2 weeks away? I’m annoyed because obviously I’m worried sick I have had exposure to sun a lot lately which is adding to my concern.

Any Input would be appreciated, thank you 

  • Welcome to the forum 15051985 although I'm sorry for the worry your mole is causing.

    Many of our members have been through this so they will definitely understand how you're feeling at the moment and hopefully it won't be long until some of them stop by to share their experiences and advice.

    In the meantime, if you'd like to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very supportive and will do all they can to answer your questions and put your mind at ease.

    We're thinking of you 15051985 and wishing you all the best with your appointment in 2 weeks time.

    Kind regards,
