      The 4×4 mm is what I got from the initial report. He told me that he definitely thought it was melanoma. Still waiting for the lab results. Husband hasn't really been supportive so I feel like I'm on my own here.

      Susan,

      Thank you for your reply! I just re-read my doctors notes and it is 4mm X 4mm. I'm just trying to take it easy and relaxing. My husband kind of just blew it off when I told him. He thinks that they can just cut it out and that'll be the end of it. Is that true? Thanks for your help!

      Sincerely,

      Julia
