30+ years of Gorlins and i'm still here ;~)

Hello everyone, I have just rejoined the group after a 14 year gap. As a 30 year plus veteran of Gorlins I feel I'm in a very good position to offer whatever help and support I can to my fellow sufferers, particularly those newly diagnosed.

Not knowing where u live I think your best option is to contact your local health authority or the Gorlin support group directly. Here in Nottingham we have a specialist treatment centre within the Queens Medical Centre Hospital complex. I've been under the same medical team for many years, and introduced to many surgeons and nurses all the time who are learning about Gorlins thru me and my younger brother. At the moment I'm under the knife every 4-6weeks, mainly treating facial cancers, so it never ends but I know I'm getting the very best care available anywhere. Hope this helps.
