Friday 4th October

Every four months I will need to attend a routine check-up with my consultant dermatologist. Stripped to underwear, she checks the whole of my body for any strange or odd looking moles. None found today, thank goodness.

Next, she feels the lymph node/glands in my neck, my armpits, my tummy and then my groin. She is looking for hard little lumps she could roll through her fingers. None found today, thank goodness.

A further appointment is made for the end of January 2014.
