Personally I am paranoid about getting any sun at all. Having lived my whole life in the sun and already had numerous skin cancers cut out, I at an even much higher risk. My attitude now is, a little sun is simply not worth dying for.The findings, reported Aug. 13 in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, suggest that the immunosuppressive medications that transplant recipients receive to keep them from rejecting their new organs -- especially the high doses administered at the time of transplant -- may make them more susceptible to later stage cancers that are harder to cure. The researchers found that transplant recipients were four times more likely to be diagnosed with regional stage melanoma, which has already begun to spread to other parts of the body.
A year or so ago, I went to the Royal Welsh Show and ended up sitting in the shade because I was exhausted. An old man in a when chair came and sat next to me to rest. We got talking, he had absolutely no idea I had kidney failure and voluntarily started to tell me his wife had had a transplant and 2 years later was dead ass a result of skin cancer. It is a risk, we must take care when thinking about sun. Once it has started it is TOO LATE.
