getting mole cut out

[Tegam]

Mine was on my chest. I'm a nurse so have fairly good hold on my guts and I found it all a bit gross. I think it was that tugging feeling and I could sort of see in the mirror above. I was glad DH drove me. Mine was very large and I decided to do it awake so maybe my own fault

Hugs. Can someone drive you?

the clinic is only 5 mins from home, and DH will be home with the kids, so i have to drive myself.

i'm not too worried about the pathology, fairly certain it is fine, it's just the procedure. some of it is just silly (i'm breastfeeding and hope i don't leak!). But i can't stand being held down or feeling like i am. i know i won't be able to just say 'stop, i ve changed my mind' once it starts' so trying to think it through now so then i can just go to my 'happy place' whilst it is happening. not looking forward to the tugging feeling, yuk.

Maybe you could take a light sedative to keep you calm?

I had one out on my back about 10 years ago - 3 anaesthetic needles, then cut it out and about four stitches. Wasn't allowed to get it wet for a week.
