        Thanks for the encouragement!  I feel a little better today after reading these replies and then reasoning things out a bit more.  I knew that my dermatologist would likely biopsy the mole…actually, I was hoping she would.  I think it just hit me all over again about the waiting last time and it actually was melanoma.  I saw a different dermatologist then and they called me into the office for results and I was so terrified that my husband had to drive me there.

        My dermatology office has a patient portal so you can see visit notes and today I noticed that mine have a modification since the visit.  On Tuesday, they called the mole “a neoplasm of uncertain behavior” and today it has been changed to say a “compound nevus”.  I don’t know if that means anything or not.  The results have not come back yet to my knowledge.
