For so long nearly two years, the diagnosis had been simply a harmless keloid scar which was growing and angry, YES a nuisance, the size of my fist,ugly and painful but nothing sinister.
However it became apparent by the look on the medic's face that he profoundly disagreed, at this moment I felt sick, I thought 'if it is not a keloid scar, then what is it?'
Soon I would learn the term DFSP!
