Where can I get info to race/walk for cancer?

I am a fraid I might have skin cancer and can't get seen by my doctor for almost 2 weeks.?

  • Seriously, I don't have health insurance right now and I have this weird new mole on my left cheek, near my ear lobe that came since May. It is scaring the crap out of me, cuz I read that from driving, that is the number one area skin cancer starts. I'm very pale too, a natural blonde. I know survival rates are pretty good for skin cancer so I'm not really scared of death, just that I've got no insurance and don't know what the treatments are for skin cancer. Anyone else go thru this with skin cancer. Please give me any info or experiences to relieve my worries until I get seen by a doctor and get my tests back.

  • Answer:

    Girl, you need to call a different doctor TOMORROW. For real, someone will see you sooner.

Well, unless you drive with your head hanging out the window, you're not going to get skin cancer from driving. Car windows have uv coating on them. That's why transition lense glasses don't darken in the car. It's probably just a mole. Look up cancerous moles. I'd almost bet if your mole looked as gross as them, you'd at least keep it bandaged...cause they're nasty looking.

Get on to another doctor, and in the meantime phone one of the cancer charity helplines. See www.after-cancer.com/contacts for list of major ones around the world. Good luck Verite R

Where did you get the expertise to diagnose a melanoma from an innocent nevus? This is something pathologists sweat sometimes over for days! The only thing that would predispose you to skin cancer is your pale complexion. But have you been exposed to excessive and intense quantities of sunlight recently? Anyhow: please be advised that some melanomas are one of the most aggressive cancers known to man So please keep waiting and being scared.
