Thursday my general practitioner said that I should contact a dermatologist regarding a growth of my skin. It was irregular in shape and dark in color. I have seen pictures of melanoma and my growth looked very similar in my opinion. I made an appointment with a dermatologist for the following day. Much to my relief, the dermatologist said that what I had was not melanoma but something else with a long name – in any case it was safe and not hard and shiny like melanoma. This reassurance of good health was a high point of my week.
