BCC skin cancer

Hi all , I have BCC skin cancer just below my right eye . 
I had a biopsy to confirm BCC after results , been told by Drs that it’s just a slow growing cancer , not to be to concerned 
I am an emotional person , and very concerned about the decision, just want to get it removed as soon as possible , not to wait long time at all .

Finding it difficult to get a Dr to have it removed , UNTILL late in the new year 2025 , no one is prepared to do something about it with in days not couple of months  .
I just don’t understand while this cancer isn’t severe at the moment why they don’t operate straight away after being diagnosed .

My understanding with cancer it’s there , unless removed it will grow and the longer it doesn’t get treated it will grow to a stage where it has done more tissue damage and spread .

 

We as people  in some cases just move on with life and don’t stress about it  , with others it effects in different ways like myself stressing . 
This is my second lot of cancer I have got , had my prostate removal , then after blood test with inn12 months the cancer has returned after been detected.again.
Now I have skin cancer from the Sun Uv . 
should I be stressing out so much , or just get  on with life .
There are other unfortunate people out there that have far worse cancer life threatening than my self.
 I guess I’m asking the question if others are in a similar situation as myself . Ken
