      Hi,

      I'm obviously new to this board and I apologize if this is the wrong place to post. 

      I just discovered a strange looking mole earlier this week and I have an appointment with my dermatologist tomorrow.  I was hoping someone might be give me an opinion about whether this looks like a melanoma.

      All three photos are of the same mole, which is about 1/3" in diameter.  It started out flat (and all brown) years ago, but I just noticed that it is now raised (lumpy, not smooth) and is red along with brown.

      Would really appreciate any input; I am pretty nervous.  Here is the link to the photos:

      Thank you.
