I went to my doctor with a mole as it was asymmetrical, had changes in pigment (but was mostly skin colour), about 1cm wide mole which has changed colour recently.
The doctor looked for a long time and then said it was OK and benign but to keep an eye on it for changes.
I am one of those people who are rarely ill but this freaked me out quite a bit and has turned me into a hypochondriac, googling moles and skin and breast cancer stories etc.
Can someone reassure me it is OK and my imaginations of the doctor being wrong and me finding too late it is malignant, are all silly?
