        Thanks for the reply. I was starting to feel better but then I found out my granddad has had multiple skin cancers removed, melanomas I believe. However I he is naturally fair complected and stayed out in the sun constantly all the way until his 50’s often being so tan people thought he Mediterranean or Hispanic and my uncle on the same side has had several atypical moles removed over the years.

          Seems like many online get referred to a Derm for periodic checks after finding one of these, however I did not and don’t even have a Derm. Is this unusual? Perhaps something I should pursue with my GP?
