Feels like deja vu!

After skin cancer surgery two months ago my scar was healing nicely, all except this raised area at the bottom of the scar. I noticed it wasn't going away after massaging for the two months daily and using scar cream. It was just getting bigger and was staying sore to the touch and red. I called my doctors office yesterday to make an appointment to check it out. "Can you be here at 3:15 today?" I wasn't expecting that soon and wasn't prepared mentally to be cut on this soon. Dr. Gurley, after examining the bump thought it could be several things.

• Either the cancer is back
• It could be a dog ear
• or it could be scar tissue that didn't heal right
• or maybe a stitch that caused infection

None of which sounded good to me!
Anyway, after Insurance approval and preparing me for surgery, I was faced with those dreaded shots again! Feels like deja vu! They seemed to hurt worse this  time around. I guess because the scar was so new and still sensitive. We waited for my face to be numb and then continued on. I like Dr. Gurley. He has a way of making you comfortable by his sense of humor.
After removal of the bump for biopsy and suturing me back up I was sent on my way. As the rest of the evening moved on and the numbness awakened, I was hit with the worse pain. I wasn't in that much pain last time! My face hurt, my nose hurt, my eyes hurt...I was in pain. What was different this time? After two pain pills and a sleeping pill I did manage to get some rest. Wow.....Ya know, you just don't wake up in the morning and say to yourself you want to have a day like this....

I need to plan my day better...
