Can Mobic Be Taken Before Surgery For Melanoma?

I just found out I am going to have wide excision surgery for melanoma but I do not have the date yet. I just started Mobic today for a knee problem. Should I stop using Mobic or can I use up to the day before surgery. I am already cutting out aspirin for that same reason.
