Hi guys
Im in the middle of a great panic attack:(
I have had this mole under my armpit since as long as I can remember. Its light brown and is actually 2 small moles side by side. i was pregnant until 2 weeks ago (long story, but in short went into preterm labour at 23w. Baby didnt survive..:( and during the last month or so started to notice pigment (a little darker shade of brown) spreading. Ever since ive been doinh daily checks and it seems as if the pigment is spreading really rapidly. I havent measured it but i thonk it kat bee around 5 or 6 mm. I havean appointment with a derm on friday but will go absolutely crazy till then!!

Sorry about your loss. I had a mole that was crusted and bleeding which I thought was melanoma but doctor wasn't concerned. Moles aren't always cancerous and change over time but its good you're getting it checked x
