Sounds very average indeed! Do you now have to have regular CTs to keep an eye on it?

Surgeon did an unbelievable job .... some of them are magicians....

Fantastic news that they got it all .... and I know it would be a huge relief for you too.

Considering how much they cut out I'm stoked with the result ... Bi oil every day is also helping the scar heal well

Awesome news Sharon. Good to see things working out for you.

Great news sharen, so good that they got it all. I use vitamin e oil, that works great on scars too, I just had a small cancer scraped off my left knee and it's healing really well with the vitamin e.
