        Thank you so much for the replies, I genuinely appreciate it. I think it makes sense to monitor it for now and get the biopsy when we've got insurance again or there is further change. I know everyone here has much bigger things going on and I value that you offered some insight into this uncertainty of mine. Since my mother's melanoma, I've tried my best to be prudent when taking care of my skin, but it can be hard to know when the biopsies are the right call.
