A better type of questions I would ask is what could I do to make progress towards improvement (focusing all mental power on this what you could do and going ahead with what makes sense for you to do – taking more active role in this thing). So you don't have any room in your mind for worrysome thoughts that are not helpful.
There are new technology that is emerging all the time which, of course, most conventional doctors in the medical field are not aware of. For example, you could possibly let scientist to send nano-robots into your body that can target cancer cells – probably very soon if not now, it is possible (start reading http://diamandis.com/blog/archive – maybe go through them and search for keywords in each post, like "cancer").
Just in recent years, one revolutionary scientific breakthrough has been with the gene editing technology (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRISPR – again, you get better information at diamandis.com blog).
But it does make great sense to me personally that immune system is actually very powerful when providing it with proper stuff. For example, even when you get your skin's DNA damaged by sun, that is not enough because your immune system should be able to deal any false growth immediately.
It makes sense to me that many extremes cause troublesome factors – factors that contribute to emergence of problems, such as getting too much sun in a short interval or not getting it at all for too long. Body needs optimal D3 vitamin for better functioning of immune system.
So I would first try to figure out the real causes for your situation, in addition to also treating the bad effects of what is caused. Most trustworthy information to me seems to be available on mercola.com, – such as avoiding all grains, all sugars, eating raw veggies, and only going with these veggies that have the most nutritions in them (you can only eat so much in each day – so you're better off going for the best stuff available in the world).
For example, if you provide your body with a lot of C vitamin, the cancer cells don't like it. It should be toxic to them (like eat a lot of red pepper). If you will turn your entire life style to extremly healthy condition (mostly what you take in your body, but also having enough sleep, and many other factors in your environment.
Usually the cause of something serious is never just one thing but it is an emmergence of many factors.
(Beware that many big companies that create medications have own self-interest just like the entire medical field – they don't really want that people will be perfectly healthy, – that is not in their best interest. It is sick-care business, and they don't want less business.)
My suggestion would be, in case you're in stage 4, and you want to live, to stop your daily-life and become a bad-ass doctor yourself (and degrees are worthless anyway) specialicing to just that specific situation that wants to kill you – so that the rest of your entire life, until the cancer is cured, will be directed to becoming that person who knows better what you need to be doing. (The opposite would be that you just go on with your daily life, and blindly trusting the authority in your community.)
And so, if you succeed, you will have your life back, and then you're free to becoming something else entirely, should you want to.
I know this might sound weird, or crazy, but this comes from my sincere want to try to be helpful out from the concentional advice doctors tell you. I hope it makes sense.
Best wishes,
Henry

I followed your advice, Ann. I went there and expressed my worry and the person there made calls and as it happened to be at that moment the person who had appointment just at that time that I was there that person was called over and said that he cannot come and I got that person's appointment. Thank you Ann!
The mole got checked with dermatoscopy and there was no problem whatsoever with the mole. I asked that maybe it should be biopsied just in case, and she said that we don't biopsy healthy moles. She explained that the thing that causes the darker spot is just fading out and sometimes it does not fade out evenely, – or something like that.
I think that anyone who suspects something suspicious in any mole, should act fast (like I did) instead of waiting. If it seems elevated and changing in any way, the quicker it is checked the better.
I'm going to get a full body check on Monday, and I still would like to have that mole removed, – because it wasn't there before and it bothers me when I look myself from the mirror – it's rather dark from that one side, but I'm going to wait at least a couple of months and if there is no change then I'm going to let it stay there I guess.

And digital dermotoscopy, as I was thinking?

I wish I could edit the thing because I found some wordage that is not accurate to what I wanted to say. The bottom line: I want to find counter-evidence and counter evidence from a dermatologist is preferred, and biopsy is most preffered counter-evidence.

I was thinking that digital dermotoscopy is enough to have this case judged?
I have not been telling or suggesting that it is "definitely" and "without doubt" a nodular melanoma. I'm just speculating that it could be because I haven't gotten some more specific counter-evidence.
No matter what, before any of us will go to this very person who has been studying the thing, we need to have a reason for going. The way we get the reasons to go or not to go is by self-diagnosing wheter or not we think there might be a problem or not.
If we don't think that there is a problem, why should we go? We simply don't go if we don't see a problem. Because if there is no reward for going – or no punishment for not going – it must mean that we simply don't have a reason to go.
So we need to self-diagnose if we may have a need to go to a more knowledgeable person specialized at a specific life realm or activity.
Right now, I clearly see that there might be a serious problem. And this "might", is what I don't want to take chances with. (I reffered to one of the cases that had quite similar-looking mole – nodular one -, although, a litte more evolved.)
And that's why I'm seeking awareness on how to get it solved faster, which is either some good counter-evidence that the possible-worst-case-scenario is definitely not the case, from a specialist, and through a procedure – like biopsy, digital dermoscopy, etc.
With that said, I agree and support entirely that it is unquestionably almost always far better to get it evaluated by a specialist who also has a proper technology or tools rather than trying to do it on own individual efforts, such as spending a lot of time researching to try to have some less accurate evaluation than that of a specialist who has been doing this researching already a lot more and can have this thing evaluated quickly and more accurately.
But no matter what, if it has to do with our own body and our own life, we shouldn't be ignorant about the thing. We must seek to be more aware, not ignore it and do nothing. Right now, although I hope there is nothing serious and I'm aware of the possible other cases that it might be as well, non-the-less I have made some research and the result of this research is that there might be something early there, and I need to get it checked by a specialist fast.
I think that we all have to be able to either self-diagnose early nodular melanoma probability to a some degree in order to get into deciding how quickly we need to get help from a specialist; or simply have a lot of regular skin checks which I am preferring from now on personally.

A photo that I took just now, with a little different lighting, showing that it is slightly rised. I don't remember that it was so much rised before… it does look alarming to me:
