Hi there sweetheart.Yes Robins tumour was fungating.The discoloration usually means the blood supply to the area where the lump is has been compromised,and the surrounding tissue necroses,and breaks down leaving a fistula underneath.
Bren for god sakes when they ask you at the hospital what your pain levels are on a one to ten scale,tell them they are a twenty!!!and your anxiety is off the chart.
I remember once you telling me off for trawling the internet trying to diagnose myself,so take your own advice and knock it on the head.
use my number if you need too
all my love liz
