I went to the doctors as had a sore stingy spot on inside buttock and after examination have had an urgent referral to dermatologist with suspected bcc or scc. I thought I just had a little skin infection now I’m in shock and quite worried.

Welcome to our forum, Lilacstar.
I'm sorry to hear about your recent experience, and it's completely understandable that receiving an urgent referral can be quite overwhelming. Waiting for a dermatology appointment can be challenging, but it's a positive step towards understanding and managing your situation.
Once you know more, please give us an update. We're keeping our fingers crossed for you.

I’ve just had exactly the same as you and have my first appointment at dermatology at 8.45am. I’m so worried and extremely anxious. I seen my GO two weeks ago!
I’ve just had similar to the person who wrote this. My appointment with the dermatologist is at 8.45am and I’ve been awake almost all night googling everything. I’ve waited two weeks for this appt d it’s been the longest two weeks! But I kept myself as busy as possible to keep distracted. But now I’m beside myself and feel like I’ll pass out if I get up as I’m so anxious now. I’ve obviously ogled too much and know more than I needed to I’m so scared it’ll have spread as it’s already been there a very long time and I’m so mad at myself for not going to my GP sooner. I have been so embarrassed with it because of where it is.
