Shooting after skin cancer

Update: Went in for my regular eye check up and to see about a new floater in my eye. With the exception of the floater everything else look fine.

So I tell the doctor about the cancer over my eyebrow and she referred me to a oculoplastic surgeon. Said this type of surgeon would be more meticulous in this type of surgery.

So I have an appointment with 2 different surgeons in the next 10 days. These are just consults so any cutting wont be till later. Guess I'll do some searching and check credentials and reviews on these 2 surgeons.
 
Those of us that have or have had skin cancer(s) now are very aware of what we should have not done in the sun. Can’t unring the bell but can pay attention to the well publicized symptoms however one they never seem to mention is a clear or light color round mole (no irregular edges) 1/16” high (I forget the exact name but it is a form of melanoma that not dermatologist doctors don’t recognize it as cancerous).

Don’t ignore the symptoms. A very good friend, noticeably overweigh, high blood pressure, diabetic died of melanoma most at 62 most probably from working on a farm while in high school, no shirt or hat at age 14-18. Not a sportsman or pool/beach guy.
