Count me on, please.

The results of my cryosurgery were unsatisfactory so yesterday I began the chemotherapy cream [5% - the strongest, I think] on my face. I have five early stage basal cells (spaced very close together) on my forehead plus one on the other side of my forehead. I have a highly advanced AK (pre-squamous cell) just below my right eyelid. The therapy was prescribed for my entire face as my dermatologist strongly suspects that there are other abnormal cells just below the surface of my skin; he is expecting reactive behavior in those areas especially above my lip and on my nose. The area below my eyelid is already beginning to react. I am to expect quite a bit of pain as the therapy progresses but none so far.

Wear your sunscreen, everyone! All of this damage was done before I turned 16 when sunscreen was only available in SPF 2, 4, 6, and 8.

Hey Venus, I haven't mentioned how much all your work here in SRville means to me and everyone else. there really are no words to give a adequate picture, so a humble and honest thank you will have to do while I check out the dictionary.

Much Love to you.

Lori

venuscat 08-31-2018 05:17 PM

Lori.....honey.....thank you. :hug: ♥♥♥

Hi Leigh,
I'm also of the generation of wearing NO sunscreen at the beach. My girlfriends wore baby oil!! So, being fair skinned I burned. The kind of burn that the sheets on my bed were torture!
Here on the cruise ship I see so many grown adults with red skin, laying on the lounges. :headbange.
Praying the treatment is NOT what the doctors warn.
Love,
Bobbi
