Hi. I Have A Submandibular Oncocytoma Under My Left Chin..it's

hi. I have a submandibular oncocytoma under my left chin..it's diagnosed as massive. the Dr. also said benign..it hurts so I want it out..my Dr. said 'no problem, but there are risks.' she said 2 holes have to go into my face for cameras to warn if she is close to a nerve. I could also lose some of my tongue usage..does this sound normal, or am I afraid for nothing? note: my neck was broken in 2000 along with spinal cord damage and the Dr. told me he'd either fix me or cure me..THAT didn't scare me..also btw; she said my lip could droop..I'm 67 years old, a biker covered with scars and tattoos, so looks aren't too important. it's just that it's taken me so long to get back here, it seems like it never stops..3rd cancer..Dr. is 30 yrs. old..scary
