2ww mole referral

Hello, 

I've posted on here recently about getting referred to dermatology department and I received a letter today saying ' referred to clinic for 2ww suspected melanoma' is this normal to get that on a letter . Just scared me a bit when I've been calm over past few days. 
 

thanks

  • Ah so glad to hear you had good news today, must be such a relief.

     

    Mine is a large mole on my neck which I've had since I was a child, but my husband has been going on at me for a month or so to get it checked as he said it looks bigger. My MIL thinks so too. I got him to take a picture and I was shocked at how ugly it looked!

     

    Doctor took a look and she couldn't tell, she said "it's a strange one!" It measures 1.2 cm across so it is quite big. But as your story tells, most referrals turn out to be innocent so I'll try not to worry and I'll chase up the docs on Monday.
