      Hi

      i am 44 years old. I  very active mole checker and have been doing monthly checks for the last 2 years for my moles. I have dysplastic mole on my back which hasn't changed in the last 2 years but today I was going through my wedding photos and realised that the mole wasn't there in 2009 (age 35) at all. So I've developed this s mole between then and 2014 – it's on photos from then.

       

      in that time I had 2 children. I physically was ill when I came across the photo this morning  and I can't look at my children without crying. I'm beside myself. I will try and get in with the dr tomorrow to get a referral. 

       

      Anyone with a similar ecperience? This mole hasn't scabbed, itched or bled ever. But it's a good size

      im just beside myself 

       

      thanks for reading
