finally a scab

The hole in my skin left by the mole that was removed 2.5 weeks ago is finally starting to form a scab.  It was infected and raw for most of that time.  The Interferon prevents the healing of wounds.  Which is why I had to wait extra time until my surgery scars were healed before I started.

Surreal to have a pretty small (.5cm diameter) wound take 2.5 weeks to *begin* healing.  BUT, I’m just glad that I don’t have to take a drug holiday for it to heal.
