[quote=Anonymous]The medication I used is called Fluorouracil cream. It is easy to use. I had an aggressive basal cell cancer on my scalp while on an immune suppressing medication. Had a large, deep Mohs surgery for it. A few months later found another spot on another part of scalp that was a squamous cell, but much smaller and not aggressive, but also had to have surgery. The next spot, the derm and the surgeon who specializes in immune compromised patients, both said no more surgery. That it was time to manage with medication. I’m only in early 70s. Clearly someone in 80s could be a candidate for using the medication instead of more surgeries. [/quote]
