      Oh I totally agree if I had to choose I’d pick BCC over Melanoma!
      I just thought I was on such a roll for 8 years, but this is manageable. This is can do and I will!
      Starting treatment tonight. It’s on my shoulder so lucked out.
      Thank you all for your support and advice!

      Thanks for your reply and info. We did meet with a specialist at mayo to talk about the genetic side of everything opted not to have our genes tested that was in 2011. As for my boys I just do what I can do. Reg derm visits and protect them from the sun.

      Does he do a pretty thorough check at each visit? My last Derm looked at each nevi with a derma scope projected onto a screen so we could see them magnified. Thanks for your help!
