Well, the docs office called to tell me that "there is definitely a solid mass there, and it appears to have some malignancy present." Damn. I was really hoping that I was just overreacting, and that they would come back saying it was just a cyst. So now I have to wait (again!) til next Wednesday for a consultation with a surgeon, who will then at a later date take a biopsy which I will then wait longer to find out the results of. All this waiting... and I want it done YESTERDAY!! I'm not a patient person, and this is not working very well for me!
Meanwhile, telling my parents was not great. My mom took it well enough I think, but my dad... His mom (my grandmother) died of breast cancer. I think this is making him relive all those moments all over again. I know it's making me think of her... but I keep telling myself that it isn't the same as it was back in the 80's, a lot more is known about cancer now, and many MANY more options are available to me...
Of course, I can still hold out hope that it's benign...
