Skin cancer warning
Submitted by Stoinka on Fri, 2010-04-09 13:45
Do yourself and your family a favour. get yourself checked out for any signs of Skin CANCER.
Went to a specialist on wednesday morning, within 24 hrs had a piece of skin approx the size of a 50cent coin and 3-4mm deep cout out of my head, the a graft taken from my neck to fill the hole.
So please get yourself checked out.
Still be at Warroora in 28 days.

Molescan
Molescan is the way to go, plenty of us work in the sun all day and don't give it a thought, but it is a real problem. GET YOURSELF CHECKED!!!

Thanks for the reminder
Thanks Stoinka.... I need to book in for my 6 monthly checkup.
Had my first visit 2 years ago (After working in the elements for over 30 years). Had an unusual lump cut out of my back the size of 5 cent coin. Tests confirmed it was carcenogenic and luckily he got the lot out.
Wopjrb... Closest for you would be Mole and Skin Clinic in Joondalup just up the road from DPI office. They are good and explain what every little spot on your skin is.
As Stoinka said "Get checked out" even if just for piece of mind!!!
Cheers,
David
