Anesthesia has worn off...

And my head feels like I cracked it open on a cupboard door or something.

I had another skin cancer removed today. Just about a year to the day after on on the other side of my head.

I guess regular visits to the dermatologist will be part of my future now.

Mom goes tomorrow to have a painful cancerous cyst cut off. Sorry to hear of your plight bro.

I guess regular visits to the dermatologist will be part of my future now.

I've had several melanomas removed but all from my legs. I had to visit the dermatologist every 6 months until I was clear for 3 years. Now I only have to go once a year. At the last 6 month visit, they said I "graduated" to the yearly visits. I was hoping my wife would throw me a graduation party so people would bring me gifts and money, but sadly, that didn't happen.

How does the dermatologist detect a melanoma through your tattoos?
