Re: Waiting is so hard, cancer fears
I'm sorry. That is incredibly hard, when you just want an answer but keep getting put off.
I actually went to the derm a few months ago because I had some spots that I was just sure were cancer - I'm very pale and burn easily and they were just odd. I was terrified I wouldn't get in, but I did manage to get in fairly quickly and...it was nothing. Just an atypical skin tag. A lot of drama for nothing (but nothing is good!).
It's likely something totally benign, some sort of allergy or irritation, but even if it does end up being sinister they can often remove skin cancers very quickly and easily.
I'm sorry about your mom, and no doubt that is triggering for you. Hopefully you can get some good news and hopefully she is feeling well herself.
