Thank you to everyone for you support and encouraging wishes.

The news is good. It's not skin cancer. It's sebaceous hyperplasia for all you medical types out there. I'm very relieved and very glad I didn't let the HMO folks make a mess of my nose. I'm told dermabasion will take care of it as well as some previous damage. I'll give that some thought.

The swelling and tenderness I was concerned about wasn't associated with the biopsy, so I stopped at one of those pharmacy clinics on the way home. Turns out I have a sinus infection (which totally explains the watery eyes I've had the for the last week), so I'm on antibiotics now and all that should be cleared up in a week.

I'm a happy camper!

Thanks again for all the good wishes. All of you are such great support to me, in MLC-land and otherwise. I can't express how much that means to me.
