Hi Lou, sorry you’ve got this additional area of concern - but it sounds so tiny that I hope it would be easy to manage, even if it’s bcc. Sounds like some people are able to use non surgical treatments for ultra-mini areas - fingers crossed. I’ve got 4 places on eyebrow, eyelid, side of nose and cheek that were identified by at least one of the three doctors I’ve seen as possible bcc - well the eyelid was IDd by ALL of them as a definite, the others will need to be biopsied - or maybe excised and sent to path lab.
I appreciate you staying in touch with me on this, it’s good to feel like someone understands the situation. 

Hi Dawntreader sorry to hear you also have multiple areas of concern. I hope treatment and answers come your way soon. It’s exhausting having this hanging over you every day. I can’t wait for life to be about other things and not wake up everyday and go to sleep every night worrying about this. 
Keep in touch, let me know how your appointment on the 31st goes. 

Hi Lou, thanks, and the same to you. Not long now for you - I'm going to be keeping my fingers crossed all day on 3/11 that the surgery goes really well and you're left with a tiny, discreet scar that only you will notice. 

Yes I will let you know after my appointment how things go. I'm not that worried and I'm not sure why ...  a bit orf denial? It's strange because I'm usually a terrible worrier!! Please keep posting here if you find it helps, your companionship definitely makes me feel more grounded.

 Dawntreader same here, thank you for staying in touch x 

Hi Lou, just wanted to check in and see how you’re doing.
I’m starting to feel a bit of fear in the pit of my stomach now that I’m getting closer to my appointment on Friday. I always go in with a written list of questions but I find the consult often goes in some unexpected direction so you get side tracked. You look at the list but you’re so aware you’re taking up their time so you kind of rush through and realise later that important things haven’t been addressed. That’s my fear at this point - that I won’t get all the information. Some people aren’t worried that way, they’re happy to just put themselves in the NHS’ care and go with the flow. Better for mental health probably!

Hi Dawntreader totally understandable to be feeling fearful the closer the day gets, I feel exactly the same. I think it’s a great idea to go in with a list of questions and have them in your hand when you enter the room. You already know how easy it is to get sidetracked when the consult is talking to you so I think you’ll be fine as you’ll be prepared for that scenario. Let us know how you get on. 
One week to go before my op and my emotions are all over the place. It’s hard to prepare yourself for something when you don’t know what the outcome will be. It’s not a case of well, at least it will be over this time next week. I’m struggling to come to terms with looking different. I know this is going to have a huge impact on my mental health and I’m scared where that will take me.

I hope your appointment goes well on the 31st. I’ll be thinking of you. 

Hi Dawntreader I think it’s the thought of having a skin graft at the end of my nose and how it’s going to look afterwards. Also the new area of concern on the side of my nose/nostril is getting worse. I haven’t had a diagnosis on that yet but I’m pretty sure it’s bcc, again there is no excess skin to cover the area should it need to be cut out. So many scenarios going round my head right now.

Best of luck on Friday.
