    Well, I finally decided to go to the doctor for a mole that I have had since I can remember but a couple of months ago. I noticed it looked odd but not terribly interesting. I put it out of my mind and realized it a month ago again. I think I had noticed it back in June and it is now August. Anyway it looked irrugular and atypical from the pics I have seen and showing three different colors but I think it’s 5mm. So not very big. When I showed it to me doctor he said yes it looks strange and needs checked out. So I’m waiting for a derm. To call me back. Well a few months ago I had been having pain in my shoulder near the mole and they did an MRI on it and said I fractured my clavicle one of the hardest places to fracture near the ACJoint. My question is, could the wierd mole and fracture be related? They still haven given me a clear indictation in if it’s a fracture. One doc says it is but another says it isnt. I just want it to stop hurting. Will keep you guys posted in what I find out. In the meantime I will try to stay calm. I have yet to inform my husband on this and fear that it could be cancer until I get a biopsy.

        Hi Ally –  Yes, do try to stay calm – no sense worrying until you know there's a reason to.  I hope your results are great and the thing is benign!! Take care.
