I had a very benign looking thing removed on my leg earlier this year, by my choice, and it ended up being melanoma. My dermatologist was not impressed, but I followed the "ABCD" and insisted it be removed. Thank goodness it was just in situ. I had Mohs surgery, which left a big honking scar on my leg, but after reconstruction, it's nothing!
