Skin Biopsies: Update

Two of the three were positive but not metastatic. Treatable, which is the good news and I really like this doctor. Very understanding and for a dermatologist knows a lot about Lupus! That’s a first for me!!

Katidid,

Oh dear, what a shock for you. So sorry to read that it was this news. Good that it is treatable and not metastatic, but the word cancer applied to yourself comes with it's own particular and personal gravity. To have someone you trust is knowledgeable about your overall condition makes all the difference. I am so pleased you have this in your Dermatologist. May the treatment go well and swiftly.

Blessings to you. Panda x
