Had my appointment with

Dermatologist yesterday. Removed 3 suspicious moles for biopsy. Froze off about 4 blemishes and about a dozen steroid shots in each of my 3 psoriasis spots.
Got the full body scan.

She said they didn’t look too bad.

I told her needs a raise, having look at an old mans butt.

of my right ear. 6 months ago I had an itch there and that caused a scab that was there for months. Healed up, but still had a ruff spot. She didn’t find it, but I pointed it out. That was the only one that caused any discomfort. Real glad I asked her about it.

I’ve had a few barnacles taken off over the years. Been lucky until last year when a pimple looking spot was cancerous. It looked like a white head pimple and I finally went and had it looked at..so glad I did because I ignored it for a while. Lessons learned
