Hi all.

Im 34 and live in London. No family history of melanoma. Dad had bcc

For last few months, maybe longer i have had a melanoytic lesion on my scrotum about 5mm. I went to the dr and saw a nurse which said just keep an eye on it to see if gets bigger.

Not too happy i went to a private dermatologist who said primary diagnosis as benign blue nevus and differential as milgnant melanoma i.e. get it checked.

I took this info to my gp and saw a nhs dermatologist in a speedy week.

They said didnt think it was a blue nevus, it could be a benign SK, a SCC or melanoma and only way to be sure is biopsy. As its on scrotal area they are statarting with a shave biopsy and if anything cancerious will do a full biopsy

The lesion looks all one colour and has no irregular melanoma features except one...a blue white veil

Can a blue white veil be on a benign nevus?

The wait is driving me crazy....last week they said my biopsy will be 18th June (earliest) then 1-4 weeks for results 

Im thinking to go private - is it worth it? If so any good ones for reasonable price in London?

Thoughts?
