J went to the National Skin Centre last week. I thought it was just for a consultation.
Turned out the specialist felt the mole near his neck should be removed and did it on the spot.
Gabriel, who is J's GP, had noticed the progressive growth of the mole and sent J to Madeline, the specialist. Basically we trust Gabriel and follow his instructions very carefully since he was the one who managed to diagnose J's Ankylosing Spondylistis (AS) condition. For 10 years, J was in pain and all the other doctors could not tell him what was wrong. That was very torturous.
This was taken last week when he had the sutures. Madeline sewed him up twice, internally and externally. J told me the growth was the size of a rivet and actually went a lot deeper into his neck. Yikes!
Yesterday, the stitches were removed. There will be a scar but we were terribly relieved when Madeline said the growth was benign.
