Has anyone had Paget's disease of the vulva?

May I ask what is your age? I'm newly dx, 84 years old, and facing these decisions. When you had Moh's surgery (I am familiar with the procedure) did they keep you anesthetized the whole time they did four stages? Or is this done with local anesthesia? My husband had MOHS on his forehead but that was a little different situation.

Hi there!
I am 72. I had MOH’s done, and it was done just as it was on my face. I had 4 passes before I got clear margins. They used local, and it was not bad to me. I would say though the initial needle numbing sticks were the worst part. If you go to the myempd facebook group, and read their stories, you will find all different responses.

I go to see my doctor June 13, and I sure do hope it is still gone.
