Seems to me you that you have two concerns:
1) Should you do something right away? My view is that the trouble
with this type of cancer is that you start out with something that you
can see, i.e. the moles (if they are malignant) and then it progresses
to something you can't see. This cancer spreads by traveling to your
lymph nodes and then beyond all of which is inside of you. The whole
point of removal is to prevent this spreading.

2) The 2nd item would be that you don't feel comfortable with the
surgery as you mention the area hurting for so long. That doesn't seem
right to me. If you're sure you'll change bases in 4 months that
might be worth the wait and as Angela says watch the area closely and
of course keep it as protected as you can.

personally, I would just watch the moles closely. On the other hand,
he MUST have a reason why he wants the moles removed. Did you ask him
why? If you didn't you should. If there is the slightest possibility
that there could be cancer, I would get them off asap. I wish you the
best in whatever decision you make.
