I was first diagnosed with Squamous cell, but when the labs came back it was worse, porocarcinoma which is apparently much nastier and easily spreads, I think. Did a CT which came back normal. (yeah!!) I have a great doctor with a postitive attitude, but they all talk about the best case scenario. I have a small wonderful support network already. On the other hand, I can only find the worse case scenarios in my on-line research. Surfing the net scared the hell out me. I stopped after about an hour, but would like to hear from someone dealing with this longer than I.

So far, I am my own answer. Had MOHS surgury and a clean bill of health. Scar is still healing and no signs of spreading.

My boyfriend was just diagnosed with porocarcinoma a few days ago.  We still don't know yet if it had spread anywhere but hoping for the best.   Have you had any recurrence since 2010?
