What to do depends in part on whether the cancer is contained within the cervix. And there are several treatment options, depending on the nature of your illness, the staging and whether it has spread.

I am a cancer survivor. I know how overwhelming this can be. I wish I could say something that would make you feel better.

But my best advice is to find out all you can about the disease you are facing and the alternatives you have in fighting it. Don't be passive, and don't be afraid to ask lots of questions to your doc and don't be afraid to get more than one opinion on what to do.
