Kid, you need to get a referral to a gyn/oncologist.   Somebody needs to work with you to get to the bottom of your situation.
Your history should be enough to get your gynecologist to make a referral for you.  If not, get copies of your medical records and ask for an appt with a gyn/oncologist.
Don't give up until you have a gyn/oncologist at your side, and , don't let anyone else perform any surgical procedure on you.  Only deal with a gyn/oncologist.
The sooner you get on this the better.
Please do let us know how your situation is progressing.
Peace.
