I went for my shin check up with the dermatologist today. She took off a "suspicious" bit of skin(and is sending it to the lab) and gave me a scrip for some cream to put on two other spots. Then she cut off one of my finger nails to send to the lab for a culture. What is up with that?

Back story is that I lost my daughter-in-law 5 years ago to Melanoma and my husband has been battling with skin cancers for about 10 years.

I don't need this now. I'm trying to focus on this band and getting the weight off and now this. :)

Since you have been touched by skin cancer thru other family members maybe the doc is just being very cautious. Hang in there.
