Hi, newbee here. Sheri.
Years of California Sun and now Florida sun have caught up with me.
I had a sore that would not heal on the top of my forehead. I just got a new job in Fl and had to wait the 4 months to get my Insurance.
I went last week to the Derm and she immedietely punched a hole in it and cauterized it. I almost fainted! My next appt is three weeks away. Thankfully I found this forum and drove down to Ft Lauderdale to buy two boxes of Cymilium. I started the treatment three days ago and sad to say after I clean it every time I see yellow dead cells near the top layer all around the hole. I feel certain there is a bigger patch of Cancer still there.
Here is a pic with the paste on it. I will take another pic later with it clean. It makes me sick to my stomach the treatment hurts so much.
I have completely changed my diet to Alkaline, low sugar, berries and green smoothies. Plus I started taking ProCreatin. I believe in the power of wheatgrass and aloe.
If anyone has had a large hole like this to tackle please provide any tips. I am thankful for any educated plans. I AM GOING TO MAKE THIS GO AWAY!! :)

I actually had a very similar sized nodular BCC in the same area.

I have used bloodroot in the past but was concerned that it would be a hassle to keep the bandages on this wound so I went for traditional Mohs surgery.

I expected that the derm was going to shave a good portion of the area before he did his work but to my surprise he didn't. He just kept slicing and dicing until he felt he had gotten outside of the "margins" where mutated cells were. he left me with a nice 1' circular hole in the top of my scalp.. the revealing part of this is no bandages just neosporin.. I would have thought he would have tried to stitch it up but he said scalps heal up niceley.. Well it did actually after 3 or 4 years actually heal up pretty nice but I had a pretty nice bald spot for a year or so..sad news and proof that Mohs isn't 100% is you can see in the picture that some bcc is coming back..I am hitting it with the solutions I am beta testing and holding it at bay..

If I knew what I know now as to how the healing process was going to go with the derm, I probably would have gone bloodrootpaste though I may have ended up even with less hair or a bigger hole..not sure.

I do know this... Cymillium has worked for the owner of the site "Dan" and quite a few other people but did not work on my larger nodular BCC's. Being as you have been to the derm..for sure she biopsied it so you need to confirm what you have and proceed accordingly..either let her do her thing or choose one of several self treating options.

If I have to go heavy artillery on the one that is coming back I'll probably try one of the newer approaches i.e. Iodine or vitamin C before resorting to Bloodroot paste or Petty spurge.

Below is a picture of what my big one on my scalp looks like today with the newly emerging BCC smiling at me..

The doctor called today to verify its BCC. She suggested surgery in her office. I told her I am trying a topical salve first.
I do beleive the Cymilium is working. It is hurting less when I apply it. The bottom seems to be raising up closer to my scalp and sometimes the side rims are excreting alot of pus. Its been 6 days on the treatment then I took today off with just aloe vera straight from the plant. I am going to keep trucking forward with the cymilium. I also am taking procreatin tablets...eating cottage cheese with flax and topped with curry powder. Green smoothies with wheat grass and blue green algae, alkaline drops in my water and a score of some other supplements. I lost 5 pounds in two weeks! whoohoo added benefits.
