I agree with Christine that you are lucky it was only precancerous--that means no cancer. Obviously you are going to have to be watched closely.
Christine is absolutely right about living your life without fear. (hard to do, though at times)
But your doctor should have had more to say, I think about watching it. I would definitely get hold of someone (a PA, a nurse) ask that those questions be forwarded to the doctor or answered in some fashion. You need closure with your present experience, even though you realize it will not be "closed" totally. If you are really unhappy with the rushed doctor, you are always open to finding someone else who will not make you feel like your case is only one of many they have, and thus not so important.
Just my take on it.
