Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
Wats your age?
Any other health related condition like Diabetes Hypertension etc?
No it's not death sentence and the survival rate is more then 60%-70% after 60 months of surgery. However in age above 65 it's as low as 30%.
Chances of beating it are much higher.

Waiting for reply.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
As you are in good health therefore chances of recovery(in cancer patient is calculated by 60months survival) are very high.
Contact you surgeons and get the operation done ASAP.
Don't read too much(Most of the theory has nothing to do with practical).The best thing is to get the surgery as soon as possible.
Hope you get well soon and recover fully.
Remain positive calm and composed(I know it's easy to suggest but difficult to do but try to remain calm avoid unnecessary informations and get the surgery done ASAP
Meet only positive people for few days.
Thank you!
