Hello Humber,

How you're feeling is totally natural, sometimes it can be unclear how to feel in certain situations. As you've just been diagnosed it's can help to feel informed about what the next steps could be and your doctor is there to support and guide you through that so don't be afraid to ask questions. On our website, there's lots of information and advice around skin cancer including basal cell carcinoma which you can refer to at any time.

I hope this is helpful,
