Got my biopsy results. Came back earlier than expected. [View all]

The doctor gave me the options of removing the entire spot or a partial for the biopsy, and I went with the full removal. The procedure was a little more involved but I'm glad I went that route.

It was an actinic keratosis but no cancer anywhere. The margins were good- it was all good.

I will have to be checked from time to time, of course, but that's OK.

Thanks again for letting me vent last week.

I just had one of those frozen off for the 2nd time. Got to go back in June for a check up. C Moon Apr 2016 #5
They didn't want to freeze it off because of my history (oral cancer & radiation). Solly Mack Apr 2016 #14
