, hello BJM,
I see you've endured radiation treatments Twice.
I just had my 6 th tumor, at 1 year post VMAT ( A type of IMRT)-- We are considering it a New Primary, and I had surgery April, which revealed it was Yet Another invasive SCC with deep Positive margins, thus I had even more extensive surgery May 14.
And I've a new diagnosis -- Field Cancerization.
Anyway, I volunteered for more Rads, to clean up the area because the front margin was 1 Millimeter. Too close !!
I have lots in common with your profile, but not the bleeding part. But yep, it could be from tissue & vascular damage, from radiation.
So, what are your options now?
Hang in.....
