I've had similar freak outs abt melanoma. My dad died from it in 1997 . My mom has a different form of skin cancer. I am pale with freckles and reddish hair so there is a real risk. There have been times where I've flipped out over something on my skin like like a mole or scab that won't heal. So I understand ur fears. I never go to the doctor tho so I take the opposite approach: ignore it and hope it goes away.

I think there's a grey area where we can be conscious of our predisposition and take proactive steps to reduce risks but not let the fear rule our lives
