For three years I have been going to a good dermatologist with a lesion on the left labia. He diagnosed it as lichen sclerosis and I was put on clobetasol. He tried a few other orintments when that wasn't working. Nothin did any good. Don't know quite why we never did a biopsy until this June but it revealed I have ExtraMammary Paget's Disease. Found out in doc terms ExtraMammary means NOT in the breast. So in the vulva. I am now in treatment for that condition. But it has been interrupted by the sudden loss of vision in my right eye, followed by an 8 day hospitalization. And after that I caught covid and just got home today from a 10 day stay in the hospital. I'm 84, so no spring chicken. Not trying for sympathy. Just stating some facts. Glad to answer any questions.
