Scaring Myself Sick About a Mole Posted: 10-05-06 13:04pm
Ok so a few months ago I recently noticed
a mole I have never seen before underneath
my right breast. It is small but it is
solid black. I have been watching for
changes but it seems to stay the same.
Should I be concerned? If I had the money
I would go get it checked out but due to
no inurance I cannot afford it at this
time. This is scaring me to death because
I do get into the tanning bed.

Go to a doctor. Yes, it's expensive, but
it's going to be cheaper to get
prescreened for problems than have to pay
out the wazoo should something terrible
come of it.
If you haven't noticed this mole and then
*boom* there it is, you need to get it
checked.
Ps. Tanning beds are like petri dishes
for cancer. Stop going.
