Trust yourself
You are so right about persisting, Darlene. I had a a little spot on my nose last fall that was a little different. I mentioned it to my primary care and he thought it was nothing. My old dermatologist had retired and I made an appt with a different one who looked at it and thought it was probably nothing but he called in a young female intern to look at it and she said it needed to come off–sure enough it was a (drat, the least serious type–hope it comes to me in a minute) that she removed but found it was deeper than expected and sent me to a specialist in the MOHS procedure. It wasn’t as serious as yours but the location made it difficult and could have been serious in time. We have to be proactive. We’re decades past the time when people accepted a doctor’s opinion without question. As soon as I send this the name will come to it–it’s right at the tip of my mind to combine a couple of expressions.
