So, I have had the misfortune of being told I have a BCC growing on my lower left eyelid. The tumor is 3.2mm and chances are they will need to take just over 1mm either side to ensure all the cancer has been removed. This will result in about 50% of my eyelid being removed and will have to be repaired with a skin graft from my upper eye lid. I am 32/33 weeks pregnant. I have two other DCs. I want to do this now as DC1 has medical issues which are ongoing but will need particular focus from January 2014, and the BCC has been highly irritating in the last 5-6 weeks, bleeding, itching like crazy and crusting over and in my opinion, growing more rapidly recently. Has anyone been in this position and do you know how to manage pain when 8 months pg (and therefore unable to take most medications)? I had no idea this was the problem - I have been told all along it was just a cyst, but grew suspicious and went to see an opthalmologist for which I am so relieved.
