Good for you on being proactive and getting this taken care of as soon as possible. Removing suspicious moles is not really "surgery" per se - I've had many suspicious moles removed, all done in the doctor's office in the blink of an eye. It's virtually painless - they numb the area, a quick snip and you're done. I know our minds go to the "dark place" but just know you're doing the right thing and PT's prayers, thoughts and peeps will be right there with you.
