I have just been diagnosed with Mac skin cancer. I have a spot on my forehead and one on my cheek. I am having mohs in a week. I don’t even no what to do. I had the cheek spot biopsies 3 years ago with a shave. The report said it was a cyst. A month ago the shave scar felt bumpy and they a did a punch biopsy it came back as mac. They scheduled me for mohs. Then I noticed a very small faint white flat area on my forehead and that was biopsies and came back as mac. Has anyone has this type of skin cancer?

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to our corner of the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    Although I've had two different types of skin cancer I don't have any experience with microcystic adnexal carcinoma. However, there are quite a few previous posts in the group which I've linked you to. You could have a read through these and reply to any where you think they might be able to help you further.

    It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and proposed 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.

    All the best with your upcoming surgery and do come back and let us know how you got on.
