 Subject: Your Opinions, pleaseMessage: If there's ONE thing this group is good at, it's giving your opinions. I need yours! I went to the Dr. yesterday and I learned I need to have a mole biopsied. It's a very strange mole, strange shape, flat, and multi colored. I hadn't seen it myself until yesterday when the doctor took a picture of it and showed it to me. All I can say is .... Hmmmmmmmmmm. So, what do you all know about the % rate of these things being cancerous, how treatable are they and if it IS cancer, what do they do?? Thanks ladies! |

He made me get one taken off the side of my nose years ago and then made me have Dr. Clark remove some "freckles" that grew together and had them biopsied! I wish he would stick to cutting, freezing, slicing himself and not get me involved.... I just hate that. I know if a mole or whatever changes shape, size and/or color it is best to have it checked.... And knowing is definately better than worry! Even if the results of the tests are not what you hoped for, at least you know what you are dealing with. Those that were checked out on me proved to be nothing to worry over. Just a mole and some run together freckels! |

By all means, get it biopsied, and the sooner the better. If it is benign, it's a bonus, but if it is malignant, the sooner you get it removed the better the prognosis. |
| Lynnie IP: 74.67.166.37 7/18/2006 23:13:47 | RE: Your Opinions, please Message: Moi - for most "barnacles" or moles they remove, most doctors or dermatologists want a biopsy. It's just good form, plus insurance might not cover lesion removal without a biopsy. And, really, would you want it any other way? You want to know one way or the other. |
