Hello All, first question is once they have removed the tumor does that mean you dont have Bcc any longer? Do you carry bcc all of the time and just wait until another tumor appears? The doctor that removed the growth I had said when the bandages come off I would be good to go... huh?

Basal cell carcinoma is a type of nonmelanoma skin cancer, and is the most common form of cancer in the United States.
Basal cell skin cancer almost never spreads and if they remove all of the tumor then it is extremely unlikely to return.

I understand that it wouldn't come back in the same spot. What about the rest of your body how likely can one person that has had it before get it some where else on the body? Does one carry the cancer gene all the time? Will I always have to wonder when or where will the next tumor grow?
