        I forgot to include that I am a 37y/o female- single mom to 3 little boys who are 1, 5, & 10.  I have numerous moles and freckles.  I am fair skinned and have had more blistering sunburns than I have fingers and toes. Should I ask the doctor if she would give me a full body exam to try to locate any other worrisome areas? I only went in to the dermatologist for a consultation regarding botox treatments for my cranio-facial hiperhydrosis and luckily I thought to show her the mole on my stomach that seemed to be changing in color and just didn't look right to me.

          and I've never heard of the makor institute that was mentioned.  I will look into it though!  Thank you both again!
