      Hello,

      I am normally writing with questions for my husband.  however, I had a mole removed on Wed at the Dermatoligist i have had for awhile on my kleft claviacal.  My Grandson has been trying to pull i off for awhile now.  The dermatoligist called and said is wa "nevi" and they were going to send it off to another lab for further investigation and I would know in 7-10 days.  Probably nothing, and will be benign, but just curious if others had this.  Thanks, Mary

          Nevi = mole.  They are the same thing.  So basically, all they told you is yes, this is a mole.  That's it.  You just have to wait for the pathology to see if it has any "special" features.
