Scared as having mole removed and found others

I have just had a mole checked over and I'm being sent to have it removed, derm didn't say anything other than it doesn't look right so best to remove it, however since this I've found 3 others on my body that are very very similar to this one, (asymmetrical and discoloured) I'm so worried! I'm 26 and have 3 young children! I'm so scared for what might happen if the moles are melanoma as google is basically telling me that they are a death sentence :( I'm so scared.

    Hi Emma

    I had 3 moles removed 5 weeks ago and still waiting for the biopsy results. I know how you feel and Google makes you think all sorts of things. You are doing the right thing and just mention the others at your appointment.  

    Try not to stress too much although I know that's easier said than done. 

    Good luck x
