Got like a white lump/mark on my bottom lip,started about 6/8 weeks ago,thought was just dry skin so vase line on it etc but did fuck all.anyway went Dr's last week said sending me for biopsy/see a consultant. Anyway went today,said looked like damage caused by the sun,consent form signed now going for biopsy then see the results and decide what happens next. Got to admit I'm worried cos we all fear the c word. Sorry to be depressing lads just feels bit better talking about it.
Scarey stuff mate (fingers crossed everything will be fine) I'm feeling the same way atm pal...found a lump on me bollox a week ago, went straight to docs and going to hospital in morning for an ultrasound....these things are sent to try us pal, how I look at it is, don't worry till someone who knows their onions ( or my onions, in my case ) tells me to...hope all goes well for you J👍
Eyup J, fingers crossed for you mate. My old man had it on his ear (sundamage) and they ended up just removing it like they would a mole or whatever, sure it will be ok. T, same goesfor you mate, hope all's well 👍

And thanks lads for all your kind words,means a lot top bunch of lads on here you really are.thankyou
I had a Basel Cell Carcinoma (BCC) -Skin cancer successfully removed last year from under my right eye , they had to use a skin graft which they took from my upper eyelid and grafted onto the cancer site. You can hardly see it now the graft has taken and there will be no concerns regarding cancer , I just have to keep covered , always wear a hat in the sun. I was really scared when they use the dreaded C word. Try and stay positive and what ever the outcome , you can beat the bastard. Chin up matey. If you need to chat about it pm me and I'll send you my phone number.

Just brief update,had the biopsy over 4 weeks ago,told me I should hear within 2,anyway got a letter today saying got to go some clinic for results on 30th June,over 2 fuckin weeks so that will be nearly 7 weeks since biopsy,doing my head not knowing and waiting but no choice but to wait,keeping everything crossed.
My Mrs recieved a letter from the Doctors saying that her results had come back postive (For Cancer) and she had to contact them asap. Only for us to go there and find out that there was a mix up with the addresses for someone with the same name. Idiots!!
