The thing that concerns me about your post is your comment that everything seems to be happening so fast and you haven't had a chance to get reasonable answers to some serious questions about the extent of your surgery.
It seems to me if it's not cancer, then there's no reason to rush almost overnight into what sounds like a major procedure. If it IS cancer (which a biopsy should be able to tell you), you should then get the input of an experienced cancer team, who undoubtedly would have scans done to help determine the best course of treatment from there.
