Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe every thing is good,now you are healthy, and can with stand the surgery.
If your doctors say, they can find precancerous state,you can wait,but it is not definite.
If all of a sudden, you have the malignancy, and the metastasis,
think of the condition.
Take more of green leafy vegetables,pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods so that you can have resistance.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
