I saw my doctor about something on Thursday and he came across this large mole that looked discoloured in areas and he put me through a fast track 2 weeks suspect skin cancer I’m also getting constipated and not sure if it was tied in with the melanoma skin cancer I’m still waiting for a check up as is only been 5 days so nothing been confirmed yet

  • Hi I had a melanoma removed just over a year ago. I don’t think constipation is a symptom of it. Maybe it’s due to you being anxious. 

    Try not to worry, easier said than done I know. But you are now in good hands. This year at one of my check ups the Dr spotted something on my face she was suspicious of and I had it removed. It turned out to be nothing. 

    hope all goes well for you. 

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
