Hi, I had my mole removed 3 weeks ago and I was told then that it was a high chance it was cancerous due to the shape, size and colour. I was told I would need to wait 6-8 weeks to get the results. Of course the last 3 weeks have been difficult waiting but today my consultant called.
She confirmed it was cancerous but was contained and all I need now is to go back for a further procedure to cut a little more around the area to be safe, have a full body map done of my other moles.
For anyone who had the same results have you had further check ups or do you just keep a closer eye on them?
