Mine was a new mole. When it showed up, I didn't really pay it much attention. Then one day, it hurt to the touch, and I started noticing the color changing.
I say if it gives you anxiety, get it checked out. Since being declared cancer free, I've already had 2 other moles tested, just for peace of mind.

I just had my sixth scan this morning. Even though at my last one I was declared cancer free, I was still anxious today. Less anxious than before, maybe, but it’s still a worry that they’re gonna find something. I hope it went well for you!! -

I was so sick the whole year I was on it. I was admitted to the hospital 4 times with pneumonia, I caught every cold/sore throat/stomach bug. It was a miserable year, being sick and then having pretty much every side effect possible. Everyone else says it's supposed to boost your immune system, but I have never felt sicker in my life.

I was diagnosed this past summer, and at the time, I felt like my world was falling apart. My husband would try to make me feel better by telling me I'd be fine, which of course didn't help. All of a sudden all the plans I had made for our future might not come to be. Now, after a WLE and a sentinel lymph node biopsy, and 5 months into a year-long Interferon treatment, I don't feel so hopeless. I'm doing something (the Interferon) to actuvely fight against cancer. I'm not sitting around, wallowing in my misery. I'm still able to work, part-time right now, and that helps me feel better. Don't stop doing the things you love. I still read, and do puzzles, and take walks. I definitely tire more easily.
I know you feel like you shouldn't burden others, but you NEED to, for your own sanity. I have thoughts that seem ridiculous when I finally say them out loud. Talking about how you feel and what you're worried about will make you feel so much better. Fnd someone who is a good sounding board. There are so many people who have beat cancer! You can do this! -
