Skin Paler - and pigment issues

[Guest guest]

Good Morning All

8.30am Perth time in West Australia

Has anyone had this experience or knows of someone with this experience

I am going paler (many of us CMLers are) with skin pigment

However, I have quite a few moles on my body and they too have started to change

colour - not dark but light and some have gone white.

I am going to a skin specialist in the next fortnight for him to see if they are

anything sinister.

Photos have been taken by GP and she cannot see anything amiss but thinks it is

a pigment issue however as I am the only person of who clients who has CML and

obviously on glivec she does not know so hence second opinion.

Just my luck it will some sort of strange melanoma -

or another type of skin reaction.

So the question is:

What is your experience if you have had any with moles etc changing colour to

paler if your skin has also changed pigment
