Are they repeating your scan with a diagnostic? Have you talked to the radiologist? He/she should be the one to tell you if you have to proceed to a biopsy. Most biopsy results are benign. My best advice, take it one test at a time and slowly digest the medical information. The "what iffs" can make you totally nuts.

I was assigned to a breast cancer nurse after I was diagnosed. She was my go-to person for questions that I wasn't sure I should ask my surgeon and oncologist. I don't like asking questions of physicians. I have, however, gotten better at it. My support nurse was amazing. Even if you are diagnosed, you won't be alone. For example, my psychiatrist did an awesome job advocating for me. I was so traumatized by the whole experience he made sure my PTSD and bipolar 1 disorder were treated appropriately along with my cancer during all my hospitalizations and chemotherapy. I don't have family and I live alone. The cancer treatment could have been horrendous going through so isolated. My treatment team made sure that didn't happen.
