Hi. My husband just heard from his dermatologist today that the biopsy they did on his chest last week came back as squamous cell carcinoma. George has assured me that the doctor said it is completely treatable with a drug called "FLUOROURACILE" So my question is ....is it common for someone with squamous cell carcinoma - ORAL - to have the SCC show up elsewhere? Is it completely unrelated? George gets a lung xray every year too. Thank you for an input. I appreciate the feedback.
