Has anyone been offered the treatment of cryotherapy followed by Efudix? I have superficial bcc on my face (near the eye) diagnose by pich biopsy. I was surprised to be offered this combination. Wouldn't the damage from the cryotherapy cause a problem two weeks later applying Efudix? And wouldn't it make more sense to do it the other way around, in case the cryotherapy wasn't necessary? I'd be really grateful to hear anyone's experience of this.
