Hello All,
I am feeling a bit alarmed. The doctor rang me with the biopsy results of the skin cancer on my head.
It definitely is a cancer...it is not basal cell carcinoma which would have been safer because it doesn't spread. It is called sebacious carcinoma and I have been told that it is a rare cancer and probably attributed to the fact I have FA. It is a "different kettle of fish" as the doctor put it and urgent that it comes out. Yes, it can spread but hopefully it has not. They will be able to tell more when they remove it. I am booked in to see a specialist on Friday at 3.45pm to arrange surgery. It has scared me and I am so CROSS with myself. It was being treated for a fungal infection and I knew it was not getting better....it got better, I stopped the treatment, it got worse again so I went back on treatment. I should have gone heaps earlier to have a biopsy and followed my gut......but when you have lower platelets doctors don't like to biopsy often........and they say so....not that I should blame them BUT I still should have gone with my gut and asked for a biopsy sooner and I feel annoyed with myself. This just proves that what I know about my body is superior than any doctor. My dermatologist is not to blame. It was him who said that my platelet count is fine for a biopsy.....and when I had it...I didn't bleed..........moral of the story. Go with your gut on your health with FA because the patient or parents of the patient are usually right! I hope it has not been cancerous for 12 months!
So please pray nothing has spread and that it will be removed with no problems.
Love Charisse

OH Charisse! You know I'm praying so very hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have an anchor in every storm! Praying!
Hebrews 6:17-20 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
Wow! That has to be a bit shocking to get a different result than you were prepared for. We'll definitely keep you in our prayers that they'll do well with removing it and that it hasn't spread at all. Lots of love!
That's not good! I can't imagine what you are feeling... I'll pray like mad for you! I love you very much!

Charisse- you have enough to worry about without blaming yourself for not going in sooner. OFTEN when we are afraid that something is 'wrong' we avoid having it checked because we aren't ready to deal with it yet...other times, we have other reasons like you said, low platelets, etc.
I will pray that all of the tumor is in one location and that it can be safely removed. God Bless.

Don't get down on yourself my friend, we all sometimes let the doctors take the lead, but you are right in the thought that we all, fa or not, should insist if we feel there is more to a condition than they do. Take a deep breath and remember that with God on your side, you are already a step, if not a lot more, ahead of this condition. Praying for you always,
Your friend,
Judy

Call upon the Lord in every trouble! Know that I'm praying!
Psalms 9:9-10 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
