Hi Abcded52316
I'm sorry to read about your misleading pre op information coupled with no support after surgery. It sounds like you've had a very difficult time.
Although my experience with skin cancer doesn't echo yours I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again. There are quite a few people in the group who have been diagnosed with SCC and hopefully they'll pop on soon to share their experiences with you.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on 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.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
