Skin cancer: Has anybody had fluorouracil treatment?

Just a quick update, I ended up using the cream for 6 weeks on my scalp and everything healed up nicely. I think the scalp may take longer for those that are going to use it in the future. I may try it on my arms and face too. Is there a maximum amount of times you can use it in a given year?

@trk12fire Thank you for the update! Check with your doctor for their recommended maximum times to be used in a year. I just had my follow-up to using fluorouracil for actinic cielitis on my lower lip. I used it for three weeks. We determined there will be a need to repeat it in about six months. But, so far it has meant the difference between having or not having a vermillionectomy surgery. Yeah!
