Hi @wcm. It must have been an ordeal. If it was an HPV cancer, Stage 4 loses its power as these cancers are very much more treatable than non-HPV. I hope you are feeling okay after your treatment.

I recently had a SCC tumor removed from the top of my head. It was originally diagnosed as seborrheic keratosis and treated with topical cortisone. Two years later it became quite painful, raised, and about the size of a quarter. I had Mohs surgery with clean margins and genetic testing resulting in a 2 or intermediate threat of a return. My surgeon is recommending adjunctive radiation and I'm reluctant. I'd like to hear from others like you about your experience.
