First Appointment

So...

Went to the Doctor today.

I never go and I should really.

I went for sinus medication and as a secondary item was going to mention a mole I got on my chest when I went to Mexico.

Before I could mention the mole she brought it up.

Apparently she believes it's cancerous. (no really she was quite concerned and believes it has all the hallmarks of cancer)

My sister, the nurse, told me this at Easter too and I kind of poo pooed it.

She says we need to biopsy sooner rather than later.

I asked being the vain person I am if she was good at them because frankly I don't want a huge scar. It's at times like that I realize the extent of my shallowness and I freak myself out. She said she was good. I've never met her before so I'm not sure.

I have since called the best dermatologist in the city who've I've seen for other more vain related reasons and he can get me in May 5th. I asked if there were earlier appointments as my doctor was rather insistent I not go beyond two weeks. I guess if I call every day at 8:30 there's a chance. I'll take it. I want the best.

Sorry for the downer topic, but this is my life and I document pieces of me - sometimes even large chunks (pun intended). Frankly I hope I'm making a mountain out of a molehill (ha ha ha

Update: Can get in April 19 - feeling happy bout that!
