    Have the same symptoms but here in Zimbabwe I can't find a place to get a biopsy and if it's there it will be costly ...I am worried now

    yea I've had a small mole red in color and circular since around age 20. doctor told me to watch it. then it disappeared for 10 years. i noticed it's back. same shape, same size. red ... it's weird that it went away then came back...

    My mom was just diagnosed with melanoma. I saw and pointed out to her an unusual spot on her arm, it was black and asymmetrical. This was late summer/early fall last year. By the time she went in it was a raised itchy bump. So many feelings of uncertainty and anger and disappointment that she didn’t go get it checked right away and that I didn’t push her more to go get it checked right away. I’m devastated. Please don’t wait, get anything however small or seemingly insignificant checked!!

    I had a mole grow on my leg, it was there in a round shape for years. Then one day I accidentally shaved it off. Now it's back and a second one grew next to it. They are bumpy and sometimes have a zinging feeling in them. They are both the size of a pencil eraser or just a tad bigger. Also I've had a cough for 2.5 months. Is this melanoma? Is the cough related? Is there any way to get checked without insurance?

      Ok. I found a free cancer screening place. It was a couple hours drive, and you have to wait quite awhile. Google "free skin cancer screening near me" if you're worried... they said it was a normal mole. They said sometimes they grow a "brother." Now my mole is triplets. I could have it removed "if it makes me feel better" they said. But it would be around 200 plus the office visit, and it would most likely grow back. So. . 🤷‍♀️

    I have A-typical Nevi Syndrome and I need a dermatologist that will take me on to "follow" me. I think I would be an excellent candidate for a study, although I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, also. Let me know if there's anyone who you know that would be interested in a case like me :) Oh, I was also diagnosed with a MM at age 14, in 1990, and had it surgically removed.
