Hi All
I was diagnosed with a naevoid melanoma in Nov 2019 which was removed and all clear in my nodes.
Unfortunately I have found a small pea size lump in my neck which is not deep enough to be a lymph node. It’s being removed next week but now I’m really worried as I understand naevoid is rare and often presents as a benign lesion. They think it maybe benign but can’t be 100% unless it’s removed.
Made the mistake of reading too much.

Hi debs45
I'm sorry to hear that you've got to go through the worry of an excision and subsequent wait for results 
It's natural to be worried about this new discovery. I've been where you are several times since I was diagnosed with melanoma in November 2016 but, thankfully, they were all benign.
While you're waiting, try to avoid looking for information on the internet. Unless it's on this site of course. We all do it but inevitably stumble across the worse-case scenarios rather than the information we're hoping to find which will tell us that everything will be okay.
Let us know what happens next week and, in the meantime, come back here whenever you feel like it.

Hi debs45
Just checking back to see how your surgery went and whether you've had your results back yet.
