Hi new to the forum but not to anxiety, it's literally eating me alive... I have this mole, don't know exactly how long I've had it, it's on my lower back to the left of my spine. It's not painful, doesn't bleed or any of that scary stuff. I had my Dr take a look and he said it looked fine and small. Okay...then I got a referral in the mail for a dermatologist. I brushed it off, in my paperwork it said "referral to dermatologist recommended although mole looks benign" well it looks benign right so why do I need to go to the dermatologist? I don't have health insurance so treatments come straight out of my pocket... Today I took a picture and I have spots in the mole Im almost positive weren't there before! I'm freaking out!!! If you zoom on the picture I posted you can see the spots I'm talking about. I made a derm appointment but it's not for another almost 3 weeks! Do you think it looks like melanoma? Please please be honest, don't tell me no just to ease my mind.
BTW I have no family history, don't go into the sun for long periods of time (I hate the sun I'd rather it be cloudy forever) it's about 3mm, no itch, pain, or bleeding.
