Biopsy on mole

[1974mummy]

Hi
I have managed to get myself into a complete panic about skin cancer!
I have a large number of moles and have noticed that one had changed slightly however I cannot remember how long ago it had changed! I went to the gp yesterday in a complete panic and she checked me over and said that there were a few that were slightly irregular and that she would send me to see a consultant to get it checked out. Well this sent me into a complete panic. Luckily I have some health cover and have managed to see a consultant today who checked me over said I was ok apart from one on my right breast. He has now removed this and I now have to wait for the results which it's making me so nervous !
Has anyone else had a biopsy on a mole? Do the results come back pretty quick?
Do you think he would just remove it to be on the safe side??
I am such a worrier at the best if times but this ishorrible

Dh had a mole removed on the NHS recently. Results were back within the fortnight iirc, so should be faster with private health cover.

The consultant felt dh's was probably fine, which is was, but said he'd remove it to be on the safe side, so yes, they do do that.

My husband did, the results took 2-3 weeks to come back because it goes to histology (slides made and examined by histopathologist), could be quicker if marked urgent. And yes, they do remove anything that looks odd.

Fingers crossed for you.
