Hi there,
I posted on here about 18 months ago. I had a flat mole on my leg that I went to see my GP about as it was a couple of shades of brown. He wasn't worried about it.
Anyway, being the obsessive that I am, I noticed a hair growing out of it, I plucked it out, and part o the pigment came away. The next day I wiped over it with some TCP, and the whole thing came away. It healed up to normal skin.
Well, I was looking on the internet at abnormal moles, as I have loads of moles, and it said a sign of melanoma can be parts of the mole falling or peeling off, also hairs can grow out of melanoma.
I am petrified that I picked off a bad mole and now it has spread round my body, I don't even have the original mole to show a dermatolgistas it has all healed up.
I am going out of my mind, I cannot sleep properly or think about anything else.
Has anyone got any similar experience.
Thanks
