@steiner Jakafi is the drug I take for CMML and myelofibrosis. The cancers were separate. Each time one was removed it was tested to be sure they got all of it. I just kept getting more. Had three removed from my hand in eight months. Haven’t had any more for almost a year after lowering the dosage. I’m 76 so a lot of sun damage.

@sme225 I’m so sorry to hear that you had 3 on your hand in 8 months, oh my goodness that must have been incredibly stressful. Please God you won’t have any more again. I sometimes wonder why these things happen…… it’s just not fair, is it? I’m going back to my Dermatologist in December 2025 about a periungal flat wart type growth at the top of my thumb (beside the nail). I’ve had it for about a year now but it hasn’t cleared up. With my past PCMZL B-Cell diagnosis I must have this growth checked out now. I’m 66 and want to return to work. I will remember you in my prayers.
