In reply to the discussion: STOCK MARKET WATCH -- Monday, 21 May 2012 [View all]DemReadingDU
(16,002 posts)72. Last October I had a couple of those pre-cancerous spots
Both located above upper lip on right side. For several months, the spots would peel, heal, then peel again, then heal, over and over. And the spots 'stung', not really painful, but irritating.
So finally went to doctor who 'froze' the spots. Once those scabs healed, then I had to put on Efudex for couple weeks. It is impossible to apply directly to those tiny spots, and ended up with most of the surrounding area a giant scab too. UGLY. And this was between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Last week, I had a follow-up appointment. The area healed up very nice, no more spots, the stinging gone too. However, the doctor said to return in 6 months, when he will likely have my use Efudex on the entire face.
I'm thinking, no, no, no. I'll just wait until some other area gets a spot that doesn't heal properly before I go thru having my entire face looking like Frankenstein.
