Skin cancer biopsy follow up appointment

Hi everyone,

Apologies if this has already been discussed. I was just wondering if anyone could share a little info.

I had a mole removed a few weeks ago (6 Nov) and have just received a letter from the NHS saying I've had an appointment booked for me with the same dermatologist I've been seeing. I can only assume this is about my results.

On my stitches after-care sheet they said that if I was offered another appointment, I should bring someone with me. Is this likely going to be a bad news appointment? Or would they want to see me in person to tell me the results were fine?

Thanks a lot

    I noticed you were hoping to hear back from some of our members on here, so I just wanted to let you know that this discussion hasn't been active in over 3 years so there's a chance you may not get a reply.

    I really hope that won't be the case, but if no-one gets back to you, do feel free to reach out to others on more recent discussions you find about this topic on the forum or you can start your own.
