                  Glad to hear everything's allright Alex. I f'n hate cancer. One of my grandmothers died of skin cancer. One of my grandfathers died of abdominal cancer. My other grandfather has had spotty skin cancer, benign. My wife's grandmother had breast cancer and my mother in-law had ovarian cancer. I wouldn't be at all surprised if I got one form or another eventually.

                    Paul Thanks

                    Everyone else, thanks for the well wishes, congrats, and thanks yous and such. Also thanks to the others such as joe keeping it light hearted and full of humor as that is how I am too, full of humor.

                    Paul- That was also my concern as well, everyone in my family (BOTH my mothers and fathers side) that had died, died from cancer. and skin cancer was the 2nd leading cause of death in my family so they were very concerned I was the next to be hit.

                    As of now my dad's sister had skin cancer, survived, my grandfather died of leaukemia, my grandma had two cases of skin cancer, my uncle had skin cancer, but found it early, my moms aunt died of breast cancer at the age of 26, and my grandp'as parents died of lung cancer. my my dad's mother died of lung cancer. it really does suck Paul, and raises huge concerns.

                    So please everyone PLEASE get yourself checked, the sooner, the better.

                    Alex

                        I have been unluckily blessed with this problem too. Cancer has run through my family like crazy. Everyone (my extended) family has been affected by Cancer. My Uncle just passed away by liver cancer a few weeks ago as well. I have a lot of wierd marks and birthmarks on my head, neck, leg, back, and other places. Each new mark has gotten me to go to the Skin Doctor regularly. Yes I am scared of this but I got used to it. Only bad thing that has happened out of this is that my skin Doctor (who is amazing) just retired so I am a little worried since he has been seeing me for well over 10 yrs now.

                        All the advice I can give you is to go to the skin doctor OFTEN!!! At least once a year!!! (I go usally twice a year) Do not risk your life by noticing something and not doing anything about it. If it turns out to be cancer or life threatening it REALLY hurts your family. Help them by helping you!!!

                        GET CHECKED 05!!!!

                        whoops 08!!!!

                          NOW THAT IS OBSURD....HE'LL TELL IT TO YOU LIKE HE DID SOME KINDA BRUCE LEE CROSS KICK OR SOMETHING!

                          Alex-I'm glad it was not the real thing. You make a good point on keeping track of what is going on with ourselves. Always keep an eye out for something odd. You never know what is really going on with our bodies.

                            Glad everything turned out OK, Alex. I've been there. Something similar to that happened to me around New Year's 2004. When I got to Daytona over Xmas break, I ended up with a red spot on my nose that I originally thought was a zit & after a few days, realized it hadn't changed at all; it hadn't dried up or anything. Like your situation, it didn't sting or itch, but it was a bump that was just "there". I went & saw a dermatologist a few days after I got home, who injected some kind of medication into it & said if it didn't get any better within a week or two to come back. It didn't, so I went again & they ran a biopsy & a few days later, I found out that it was OK & that I was fine.

                            It's scary how common Breast Cancer is in my family. My mom had it 11 years ago & survived, my great aunt had it twice & got through both times, I think one of my cousins on my Dad's side had it & my aunt thought she had it a few years ago. I think there may have even been one or two cases beyond that that I'm not sure of.
