I know what your'e going through. I just had a Squamous Cell carcinoma removed from INSIDE of my right nasal septum a couple of weeks ago.
Actually this was my second surgery for it. Initially, back in June, I had an endoscopic biopsy of a mystery lesion that all the doctors kept saying not to worry about because it wasn't cancer. Surprise!
Unfortunately they weren't able to get acceptable margins with the first surgery so I had to go back for an open septumectomy on the 9th. The good news is that the pathology came back clear and my doc didn't have to remove as much as she had thought she was going to have to!
The waiting time between surgeries is the hardest part. Not knowing how you're going to look when you wake up is really scary. And the videos of the reconstruction procedures are absolutely frightening! The good thing is I don't think I'll have to do any reconstruction and now I have this "former boxer' look going so I guess that's something!
Best of luck and I wish you a speedy recovery.
Fu*k Cancer,
