M.A.S.H. star LORETTA SWIT fears she is battling a mystery illness, after turning up at a recent event with a band aid covering her nose.
Swit, 70, appeared on Thursday (31Jul08) at the New York launch party for new theatre comedy Flamingo Court, which stars her M.A.S.H. co-star Jamie Farr.
When asked about her nose, Swit confirmed a skin sample had been taken for testing - but refused to confirm she had undergone a biopsy to test for skin cancer.
She pleaded with snappers to airbrush her photos, to hide the band aid.
