I'm 24, dirty blond to dark hair. dark
eyes, no family history of skin cancer and
slightly fair skinned. This past year i
have had some moles removed..A few coming
back normal and some coming back
dysplastic. I have no moles bigger then
the size of a pencil eraser, most are
fairly small...I have a lot of moles
scattered about and not many freckles at
all.....Here's my question. My last mole
that is still currently out being
biopsied...(its been about a week now)
still hasnt come back yet...The mole sent
out was on my lower back off to the side,
about the size of an eraser but
oblong....the center is pinkish and the
two sides of it are brown in color...
---- Its about the length of those
dashes, and the brown area would be the
first and last dashes...it is the only
mole i have like that and is the strangest
of all i have ever seen. What are the
chances it could come back as melanoma? I
know it would be hard to say, but as a
percentage i just have no idea myself and
i suppose i am looking for some kind of
comfort while i wait! I'm already scared
to death about it but am trying to keep my
head up until i finally have to deal with
it. my results should be in by the time i
go to get my stitches out in 4-5
days....thanks for any information you can
give!

Was this mole raised or flat?
Have you noticed changes in appearance of
the mole within short period since you saw
it for the first time?
Did you feel some new sensations in the
mole?
Moles mostly have one or two colors.

The mole was basically flat, maybe
slightly raised towards the
center...nothing you could really feel
with your fingers though.....i didnt feel
anything with the mole, and i did not
notice a change in feeling..i have a
picture that i can link to of it later on
today.. (before it was taken off)
