And don’t take blood thinners (even aspirin) before you go under the knife or you’ll here them yelling for a cauterizer STAT like I did when I had one cut out of my back. Good on you for having it checked out.

Prayers for good results my friend.
Curious who you are going to see? I have family history of bad/suspicious moles. Ive personally already had about 8 shaved and 4 of those 8 required deep shaves/stitches.
OP: I have full body checks twice a year because we have a family history of bad moles, ive already had 8 cut and 4 came back being on their way. You got this brother. At minimum EVERYONE should get checked once a year.
Thanks will make a appointment!
Praying for speedy healing, that Melanoma C is bad stuff, they found a tumor in y left eye in 2015, Emory took my eye out sewed a plaque with radiation inside, put the eye back in and let it soak for 7 days, removed it and the tumor is like a dead tree stump in the eye and vision is better than before, the miracles of todays medicine and Gods work abound.
Had a weeper on my wrist 20 years ago. Walked into a dermatologist. He took one look, said take off your shirt, called in the nurse and cut my wrist up deep plus removed all the “things” on my back and front. Mostly basal or squamous.
I have been going every 6 months since then.
So far - not too bad. The MOH on the temple sucked. Learn to visit your dermatologist on a regular basis.

Thank you all for the Prayers as they are needed and well wishes too, but the whole purpose of this post was to make awareness to us guys who are stubborn as hell and sometimes need to be jarred into realty to do something about anything.
I worry about my wife way more than myself and that is what I am talking about.
I put things off I know I should not because I am worried about her health more than mine.
What good is that worry if I am not here to do it (just saying).
If this post makes just one person go get checked it was well worth it.

Good on you for getting it checked out! It's treatable and you'll likely be fine as long as you stay on top of it.
If it weren't for my wife, I would probably have a tube running out of my body. A "routine" check discovered blood in my urine. It wasn't dark, I couldn't see it but a test strip did. Long and short of that: bladder cancer. Like yours, caught in time but JUST! That was 4 years ago now and they have gone in a few times since and removed some tiny tumors since but compared with the alternative, I'll take it!
