I know I often worry for nothing but Covid was a huge deal and no one believed me until the lockdown happened.
But everything else my mom has always been right about and it’s been nothing to worry about.
So I don’t know. I think it may be the jumping to conclusion or black and white thinking one.

I agree with your mom. A doctor wouldn't be recommending a surgery and going through all that headache with insurance and such for no reason at all. I think it will be fine. But I do understand your feelings about COVID because no one believed me either!
