        ^^The moles were completely excised without pigment regrowth after this. Could misdiagnosis happen?

          Any new pigment/growth in the skin should be checked to rule out melanoma. I’ve had new black raised mole appeared and really freaked out that it might be nodular melanoma, but it was completely benign. In most cases they are benign but defentliley anything new should be checked.

            I’ve conveniced myself that it’ll come as malignant cz of how horrible it was. Should I ask for second opinion?

              Your moles looks totally benign for me!!
              However, you have to do what makes you comfortable 🙂

                It doesn’t look like nodular melanoma at all. Also I’ll be surprised if it’s turned out to be malignant, but defentliley get it checked with a dermatologist for your ease of mind.

                          Thankyou all for your response. I really do appreciate your supportive words<3. My heart with all of you since I was reading about what ppl dealing with here in the last few months and I wish you a long happy life.
                          In my country the awareness of melanoma is close to ZERO!. that's why it's kinda strange feeling and I feel like struggling with my current situation. It took me 5 visits to doctors to get them removed!. I hated how they respond to me as I'm just overactive:). However, I decided to remove the 2 lesions anyway what the doctors says. It will be a real shock if I really got diagnosed since I haven't heard about anyone here got a melanoma removed or treated, it's extremely rare.
                          I really feel lost.

                            Ughhh:( yes it looks different from others!
                            I’ve extreme fear of hearing the word CANCER:'( I can’t even imagine having it by this age. Is this directly mean it’s cancerous?

                              So, is nodular melanoma usually small in diameter?

                                Thankyou for your words. What scaring me that it’s very black and dry from the outside I don’t think normal moles do this, I just don’t know why this is happening to me. I don’t have any risk factor for melanoma but I’ve read it can happen during pregnancy

                                  Well, I haven’t been diagnosed with melanoma yet and actually haven’t heard about this disease until I started googling after I saw my new mole but I’m somehow 99% sure it’s nodular melanoma:’/ everything I read about it is so scary, I’m 21 years and mother for 2 months baby girl
                                  I’ll have the biospy on 26th *prayinng*:'(
