Skin cancer....

Ted Carlson said

I had a swami cell carcenoma on my upper lip. They cut a V in the lip and then folded under a bit of the rest of the lip. It looks OK but my upper lip is thin now. The worst part is that the novacain shot was unbelievably painful. Now I know why kissing is so so pleasant. Lots of nerves in your lip.

I had a shot under my upper lip once for dental work. That taught me a a few new words, damn did that hurt. Will be asking the doc this, safe to assume that with skin cancer, it they remove all of it is that the end of it? With Ernie's breast cancer they did a follow up Mammo at 6 months and then again at a year and told her that as far as that incident of cancer it is a closed case.
