Yes but better than many other forms of cancer. The stats don't tell the whole story either - health habits, etc. If you have been a heavy tobacco and/or alcohol abuser then you probably should worry. There are many here who have survived advanced stage cancer and some with early stage who have died so you just never know. Your odds are a lot better if you are treated at a comprehensive cancer center. It's too soon to worry about odds - you don't have a diagnosis yet. Take a deep breath and ask your doctor for some anti-anxiety meds.
