Okay, so I'm a spotty person. I have lots of spots (moles.)
But I was driving to drop off the roomie's blood pack and I noticed one I don't remember seeing before.
It's not like its in a place I can't see, far from it, its on the top and a bit to the outside of my left forearm.
It is flat, but very dark and irregular looking.
That's 3 out of 4 alarm buttons, so I called the doctor and made an appointment for Tuesday morning.
Granted, I don't get out a lot these days, but I rode horses for years and I've also had a few bad sunburns in my time.
So, I've been needing something to post and now I've found it.

My dad had a lot of moles too, but my sister took him to a dermatologist and they were able to cauterize it. They were not harmful, the doctor assured us, but of course it is aesthetically unpleasant. I am glad you are able to get an appointment with the doctor to get that checked on.

@hereandthere a bad sunburn is where you have blisters, I was literally pulling layers of skin off and the blisters were bursting and running like water down my bod

I have a few of those that cause concern..must do something about it also.
It is not something to take chances with that is for sure El.

@TiarasOceanView My insurance isn't bad, so I'm not afraid to go to the doctor if I need to.
