something like 80% of lumps etc are benign.  I know this is scary...those two 6 letter words cause terror in our hearts ...   but try to be positive while you have to wait.  Difficult, I know.  And I hated people telling me that while I waited...but then the docs and I all were pretty sure that it wasn't benign.  

Let us know what the results are.
