Call Me Vincent

Had my right ear cut off today, well most of it .
Dr said it's probably basil cell carcinoma (pathology next week).

What was that you said? speak up please .

 

[DaveM]

I bet there was a load of blood coming out of that one

 

[otherwise]

Yep!
He said he'd put in two stitches but it took 5 to close and stop the flow from squirting all over the place.
It's because I'm a hot blooded 21 year old in a 63 year old body .

That looks very uncomfortable.

 

[DaveM]

I have nicked my ear before and I could not believe how it bled

 

[devo]

Lets hope pathology comes back with nothing nasty.
All the best till then.

I think Harry got my comments. Hope it's nothing nasty.

Hope all is well Kevin. I too am doing constant battle with the skin cancer gremlins!!!
Mine come from being a pasty white Northern Lad who loves the Sun and the South......I'd rather monitor basil cell's than shovel snow any day lol.

Hope you are all mended up soon.

Thanks all for the good wishes.
Yes some people get bad news after this kind of procedure but the odds are loaded for a clean result.
Next Friday the stitches come out and I'll wait to then for news from the lab, it will be available Tuesday but I'm not stressing.

Have had many a spot removed some surgically, some frozen off.......so far all have been very localized....and thank goodness mostly harmless The epidermis is a wonderful thing
Hang in there Vinnie

Done, BSC as expected, all good.
I was rather hoping for a bit of a jaggeder edge like a bull-terrier that had been in too many fights in order to get a bit of street cred but it was not to be.
