breast nodule

breast nodule

i am 37 yrs old and was found to have a breast nodule in right breast after mammogram/ultrasound. the dr suspected it was a cyst but after fna it turned out not to be so she sent the samples for biopsy-she kept telling me it looked very benign but i am still beside myself with nerves-i have no family history of breast cancer -can u tell me my odds?

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.
