I see a skin cancer clinic GP, not as regularly as I should though. Over the past 15 years I have had many biopsies and some BCCs removed in the doctor's room. I have had 2 BCCs removed in day surgery by a plastic surgeon (forehead & nose). On Thursday I had my first SCC (forehead) removed by a plastic surgeon hopefully all of it but waiting for the post op appointment on Thursday to confirm.
Your GP can do a punch biopsy on your neck for analysis if that's quicker than getting an appointment at a clinic, but do yourself a favour and book in for a full body check without delay.Kev

Just a follow up to this, I went to see the specialist recommended on Wednesday. He has prescribed a cream called “Efudix” for the many solar keratoses on my face, head and ears. He also wants to remove surgically the three big brown cancers that I presented to him in the first place about. So hopefully it’s all good and there’s no underlying issues with them. Thanks for all the advice.

don't be complacent when BCC's [probably had six removed]are found my GP has indicated to me that they are not as simple as most think,I have three melanomas removed and you MUST remain vigilant because they are like rabbits and continue to raise their ugly heads.
