Thread: Get that spot checked out....

  1. #1

    Get that spot checked out....

    Squamous cell cancer.

    Poorly differentiated

    It was an open scab that didn’t heal off and on for about 6 months. Not something anyone Would be alarmed by

    They cut out a 2” section. Probably be fine. They’ll test that chunk. If the edges aren’t cancerous then we’re all good.

    But still

    1) Bad ass scar

    2) Seriously, hope you’re in the clear

    3) The rest of us should make sure we get regular check ups. I’m sure most of us put it off much too often.

    All of this. Health issues are no joke.

    Never let someone who isn't a plastic surgeon put stitches on your head.

    It was a “let’s do it now” choice.

    The piece they took out was large

    I'm glad you got it checked now rather than later. Best wishes for clean margins.

    What kind of pansy-assed man is worried about being prettified by a plastic surgeon?

    We come into this world as a blank canvass; life brings scars. Embrace them as the badges of passage they are. Wasn't there a country song about this?

    Good Lord.

    Oh, yeah, and get those pesky spots checked out!

    Please everyone take care of yourselves and get your spots and bodies checked.

    My father passed away this evening after a prolonged battle with cancer. Having the torture of hospice care fresh in my memory, don’t put yourself or your family through it if at all avoidable. My father’s cancer wasn’t avoidable, but if your’s could be avoided - please do.

    Duke, glad it looks like you are okay. Best wishes for you.

    Sorry to hear that, Rob. Blessings to you and your family.
