Suspicious Abnormality on Mammogram

I'm 47 years old needing a breast biopsy. I had a routine mammogram that showed a spot (no lump is felt)and then I had a spot compression with magnification . The findings were:
Presence of cluster of microcalcifications in the left outer quadrant. They are somewhat pleomorphic. Possibility of intraductal carcinoma. Bi-Rads Category 4. Is cancer probable with these findings and a bi-rad 4 ?. What is the % that it's cancer? I just want to be prepared for the biopsy findings.

What can I say?  You've gone through so much, that all I can say is that "I totally admire you", you are right in finding a meaning to all this, because there is one, you'll know, when all these is over.  Your High calling to be a cancer nurse, well, I think is the right one.  Tam, tell McDreamy from me that he is a great, great husband, God Bless him!  What else can I say?  That you know that I'm praying for you everyday.  A friend in Christ.

Thank you for caring for me.  Congratulations on your benign results!!!!!!!!  About me, I haven't gotten my period yet, I was supposed to get it on the 11th, than go on the 14th, but nothing has happened, I already canceled the hospital appt. until I get it.  May God make all your future mammos benign.  Remember to take your multi vitamins (including vitamin E), they also said that KELP helps the breasts.   Bye for now.
