I have some skin cancer on my lower eyelid. I was going to get it wiped out in Thailand but the trip got cut short by fires/winter storm.
Spent most of Friday calling around to dermatologists. What would have taken less than an hour and less than $100 in Thailand is simply not feasible here. Earliest appointment I could find was mid March, every place required a consultation which nobody would price but general expectation is $250-$500. Then I would have to make another appointment after the consultation. The actual procedure would be between $500-$3500 and I wouldn’t get a price until after it is completed.
I’m flying to Mexico to get it done. Way cheaper even including first class airfare and can get it done same day.
Also, each time I come back from Asia or Europe I realize how much police we have the anxiety that used to go unnoticed. Its really quite crazy.
