Black Spots in Prev Radiation Areas (nearly 4 years later)

I saw my rectal surgeon today, I have a black spot in the previous radiation area that he said wasn't there in Febuary when he did an exploratory colonoscopy.  Also there's 3 to 6 spots in the vaginal area now.  I've seen a GYN and a dermotoligist, too.  It appears I'll see a urinolist soon.  Then a "short" surgery to remove these black spots, by the rectal doctor.  I also had a positive ANA test which recently landed me with an arthritis doctor.  I'm 4 years post radiation/chemo.  Does any of this sound familiar to anyone?  What's this all about?

    Black spots

    i have black spots on the skin tags.  When I asked my onc about it, he said he did not know what it was.  I guess as it has remained unchanged since then there has never been any concern on my part or his.  I hope it's nothing.
