Was time for my yearly visit to the dermatologist. She checks me all over for pre-cancerous growths on my skin and freezes them off with liquid nitrogen if she finds them. She froze two places on my face last Tuesday.
Skin cancer is nothing to mess around with! It can metastasize inside the body to major organs. That's what happened to my dad. The skin cancer on his back metastasized to his lungs, liver and kidneys. If it had been caught early, he might still be around today. Get checked out, if any kind of cancer runs in your family. Just saying!
Clare & I are realizing that our calendar now fills with lab tests and office visits… And last month I had my Social Security/Medicare phone-appointment…
@joysabin LOL! "The can..." First time I hear that. I just want any spots she finds to go away. If she doesn't use enough on me, I'll have to go back for her to do them again. Done that.
@bigmxx LOL! I can't relax in any doctor's office with exception to my chiropractor. =)
@kvphoto Yes! Stay ahead of it. =)
@ludwigsdiana Thanks, Diana!
@corinnec Thanks, Corinne! Hope it goes well.
@kjarn It's okay. The waiting room is nicer than the exam rooms.
@rhoing LOL! I know. It's getting to be ridiculous and I have to keep up with my mom's appointments too.
