Husband recently diagnosed.  Apart from cutting out the tumour what is the treatment.

Thank you.

  • Hi

    I'm sorry to read that your husband has recently been diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). I had a different type of skin cancer, melanoma, so can understand your need to want to know what treatment he'll have.

    As the online community is divided up into different support groups I'm going to recommend that you join the skin cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions and share experiences around treatment.

    To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'. 

    It would be great if you could pop something about your husband's diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

    If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
