Carole I can understand your concern. I am also fair-skinned (Irish descent) and I have had two areas of basal cell carcinoma removed. I too was not a sun worshipper in my younger years. I go periodically to my dermatologist to look for any moles that are changing, etc. I believe the real concern is for very dark moles or moles which change in size and shape. Nevertheless, the good thing is that you are getting this looked at. (((hugs))) and prayers for a good result and your peace of mind.
