Hi Steve, I've had several MOHS surgery. It is not bad at all It can just take some time. It's like having multiple "little" surgery's all in the same day. Kind of like a baseball games.. in Innings, sometimes it's one inning.. sometimes its a few, each surgery is different. They give you novacaine before any cutting and give you more if you need it. Bring something to read/occupy yourself while you are waiting, between innings. 😀
