I know you are stressing! I've had two lumps with two biopsies. It is so hard to wait to get it out. The first time I had it done, I was 27 and had to sign a consent form for a radical mastectomy, if the lump was found to be cancer. That's the way they did things back then, if it was cancer at the biopsy, they just went right ahead and took off the breast. Thankfully, it wasn't cancer and neither was the second biopsy.
They no longer do the mastectomy right away because many lumps can be treated with a lumpectomy. The best thing you can do is just not stress about it. I know that is so hard - but stress is so hard on your body in so many ways. Try to enjoy the holidays and just go on with your life right now. Stressing won't change anything at all. You have the appointment, you are going to get it taken care of, that is all you can do right now!
Easy for me to say, huh! We are all here for you!
