Somewhat reassuring - dermatologist said there were no significant concerns with the lump that's been removed from my arm

Offline Skygirl 2 days ago

I have had a message from the dermatologist who removed the lump from my Inner arm today to say there were no significant concerns and that the lump was sent for routine biopsy

Fingers crossed this is good news

That's great to hear Skygirl.

Hopefully you won't have to wait too long for your biopsy results to come back and they'll confirm the positive news you've already been given.

Keep us posted.

All the best,

It was good news !! The lump has come back from testing and is benign, it was a calcified venus thrombus . No malignancy is seen

Most likely brought about by a cannula in the area whilst hospitalised several months ago.

now gone
