Both hubby and I went to the doctor this past week to get some places looked at on our arms and neck…..looked like they might could be little skin cancer places. I got a biopsy done on 2 and hubby got it on 3 places. The Dr. also froze 2 places on him that looked pre-cancerous she said and that might take care of it before it develops into anything else. Didn’t hurt too much, but I don’t like the needles they have to use to stick you with beforehand, but I think that’s better than them cutting or scraping with no deadening! We will find out next week what they are and then may have to have something else done also, more cutting and scraping I suppose. Odd thing is, the one on my arm is on the right and I thought if it was from sun stuff that it would be on my left arm which props on the window sometimes while I drive. She asked if I was the passenger a lot, which I’m not, I’m usually the driver almost anywhere we go! And the one on my back seemed like it was in a spot that doesn’t get a lot of sun…………so it could be that these were from sun or sunburn I got a way long time ago. Gotta put that sunscreen on all the time I guess, even if you aren’t going to the pool or work outside. I think that’s what they’ve been saying the past few years but back when I was a kid, almost no one used sunscreen and I don’t think it was around much. So from the few times I did get sunburned, something would have caused damage somewhere. Glad they know more about it now and can start getting it on children at a young age!
