Hi Gita
Wish I could answer your question.. as far as I can see surgery is usually the first option followed by radiation.. I think you will find many on this site who only had the surgery and wished after they had known more.. All I can suggest is that you search this site and ask as many questions as possible.. Please keep us informed how it goes..
prayers.. love and Hugs
Helen
