Went to my dermatologist last Friday to get a skin bump on my back looked at. I kept my eye on it for a couple of months and then last week it started to look purple on the edges. Of course my anxiety goes to 12 and I’m thinking I’m going to die. Anyway, they look at it and said they were near certain it was a basal cell carcinoma, the most common type of skin cancer and easily treatable with an outpatient procedure. That was a relief. Well, I just got a call that it’s benign. It’s (or was since they removed it) a seborrheic keratosis. It’s a lesion that is very common once you hit 50 and harmless. Today is a good day.
