My biopsy results came in…they could not see any cancer cells BUT they could not be definitive because of the trauma it sustained from my “little operation”. They said it was a congenital mole (I was born with it) but they could not determine if it had become atypical. The ulceration was another area where they could not determine definitively if it was due to my attempt of removal or if it was becoming abnormal.

Due to my history with Melanoma and the potential for congenital moles becoming malignant, I have to have an 8mm punch biopsy done. I will have stitches but at least that is all I will have to deal with.  This time when they biopsy this specimen, there won’t be any trauma to throw them off.

Note to self: No more “do it yourself” surgeries. Leave it to the professionals.
