It has been really tough to get correctly diagnosed. Some doctors only do a CBC blood test and quick physical exam, ask a few questions and say I'm fine and send me home. The first dermatologist took a biopsy and it came back as basal cell but did not look at the rest of my skin. Another dermatologist found 2 other small basal cells with the dermascope on my back, shoulders, and lower neck and removed them. In the meantime I have other symptoms like a sore throat, lump in my throat, swollen lymph nodes under my arm, weak arms, ear pain, muscle twitching. I am afraid it is possibly cancer that has spread. I am learning how hard it is to get an accurate diagnosis.
