Just by way of an update, on my visit to the Mohs surgeon, things went well, I guess. What went well is that she answered my questions and those she didn’t know how to answer (I asked about some non surgical treatments), she vowed to research. What also happened is that she decided to do more scouting biopsies, which is never fun. But at least this time we were able to minimize the pain from the anesthesia shots.

@nomikins This is all sounds very promising. When did you have the Mohs surgery? How are you feeling today?

Oh my gosh I just had my scouting biopsies done (6 of them) 2 weeks ago and know what you mean by the anesthesia shots - they really hurt! Actually the first time I got a biospy - it was from a ob/gyn not a Mohs surgeon and she didn't give me any anesthesia shots - only a numbing cream when she took my vulva biopsy. It hurt so bad. It wasn't until I talked to a dermatologist friend and the Mohs surgeon where they told me that my ob/gyn should not have done that.
