I had a very benign looking freckle removed on my leg, at my insistence because it grew so quickly. I just got the message from my PCM that it is melanoma in situ. I was completely dumbfounded because didn't look anything like the pictures of melanoma that you see in textbooks. Has anyone else experienced this?

I just googled breast cancer and melanoma and apparently there is a connection.
