I had what I thought was a pimple (I never had a mole there). After several months the "pimple" started changing color and became asymmetrical. My primary Dr said she didn't think it was anything but sent me to a Dermatologist anyway. The dermatologist didn’t' seem too alarmed but biopsied it be safe (I also have a great aunt that passed from melanoma). So imagine my surprise when I heard the word cancer. So yes any change please get it biopsied. Always better to be safe than sorry.

I'm sorry you are having a hard time 🙁 I honestly had no clue just how serious skin cancer can be. I was a part of the majority out there that naively thought it can always just be cut out. Boy do I know better now! I hope that you start feeling better soon! Thank you again for all your kind words!
