You state that you are not having it done until June 7th…thats almost 2 months.  My dermatologist wanted it done within a week of my biopsy results (melanoma) and was upset that I had to wait almost two to be fit into the surgeons schedule.  Go somewhere else!!!  TWO months or even one is TOO long to wait!

Take a breath.  The initial biopsy and the wait can be stressful but keep in mind that stress is detrimental to your health.  There is no further treatment they can provide until they have a diagnosis.  I was told that the two week wait for my biopsy results wouldnt make a difference.  I did end up with melanoma and had the area removed (on my right bicep) as well as a sentinel node biopsy.  I just had my stitches removed and the surgeon told me that although he got it all and the node was clean, he wants me to see an oncologist because I had three different types of skin cancer in three different areas.  Take a breath….it will be ok.  You would be amazed at what a positive attitude and a sense of calm can do for your health.
