I was stage 1 also and went straight to surgery. I would first recommend getting a second opinion if you have confusion on what you are being told.

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) could be a option I would ask about, it was brand new back when I had mine in 2010 so I didn't feel comfortable with it and had the surgery.
