@sme225 Thank you so much for that helpful information!! Do you have a diagnosis of Primary Cutaneous extra-nodal marginal zone B-Cell lymphoma? I had one isolated solitary tumour on my forehead which I had fully excised, 3 & a half years ago now, and was told no margins were left. This started as a red pin 📌 head which I thought was a spot. My dermatologist told me it was a Basal Cell Carcinoma but when the lab work came back unfortunately for me it WASN’T!

I do have itching at night now? Previous to that I had NO symptoms whatsoever and no itching.

Thank God I have had no other tumour since. However I have been told by my Haematologist that it is CHRONIC which I do find very upsetting.

@steiner My skin cancer was basal cell and kept coming back because Jakafi encourages the cell growth. I was taking 15 mg and switched back to 10 mg and don’t have as much skin cancer with the lower dose.
