Teddi Mellencamp has revealed she had another spot on her arm removed, amid her battle with stage two melanoma.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, 42, shared a series of now-expired Instagram stories, revealing it was the ”15th time” she was getting a skin cancer cut out.
She shared pictures of herself before and after having the procedure done, saying it felt like her arm was “stung by 20 bees”.

“On my way to my next surgery with Dr. Fairies (my oncologist) to cut out the spot on my arm,” she wrote before the procedure, saying that she ”cries” when she gets her shots.
“Trying to be positive and happy I can do this one awake. I just cry every time when I get the shots for some reason. Not scared of shots, it’s just the knowing they are about to cut into me again right after I get one.”
Mellencamp recently gave fans an update about her skin cancer battle, saying a scar on her back is healing, but also flagging a spot on her arm that doctors were concerned about.

“But in full transparency, also during my three-month checkup, there was one abnormal spot the doctor felt we should biopsy,” she said.
“It’s on the other side of my body, so praying it’s nothing.”
“But felt it’s a great time to remind you to get those skin checks ❤️,” she finished.
Last year, Mellencamp revealed she was turned down for life insurance.
The American reality star and mother-of-four, 42, said she needs to write a will, even though she doesn’t think she will need it anytime soon.
She believes the skin cancer was likely caused by her use of baby oil and iodine on her skin, which she did with the purpose of tanning when she was a teenager in the 1990s.
Mellencamp also said she never wore sunscreen or got her moles checked until she was 40.
