Wish me luck...more surgery...

Just got cleared to start doing some normal(ish) workouts at my 6-week post-op following hip arthroscopy to repair a torn labrum and FAI, etc. Biking with resistance and swimmingwith a pull buoy.

Now I have had a mark on my back for a year or more but now it has changed color and shape so time to go under the knife for that. With a history of cancer in the family (most recently my dad lost his 2012 triathlon season to melanoma) there is no reason not to get that thing to the lab asap.

So Wednesday is the day...wish me luck.....I'll be back at it eventually...........

Get that under the microscope, wowzer not your best year, sending benign karma your way !

Good luck, those things are nothing to mess with or ignore. I hope it's benign. My nose has been whittled on a couple of times now.

Better safe than sorry. Looking forward to a quick recovery!

Good luck on the results!

What Matt, are you on a "buy one get one free" surgery plan or something? But on a serious note, good proactive thinking, don't mess around with stuff like that!

Matt, right thing to do to get it taken care of. Best wishes!

Smart move getting it taken out especially with your family history. I don't take any chances. I have had a handful of moles taken out even when i haven't noticed any changes. All the best, Matt!
