I went to the breast clinic this morning for the results of the tests they did last week, and the result is - inconclusive. They said that all breast lumps must be taken seriously, so I have to go back in a month and have the tests done again, and then a week after that for those results. They didn't want to do them again today because there will still be bruising from last week which could cloud the picture. The only things they could say were that it's a 12mm mass, there were no cells at all in the sample they took with a needle (which they said was surprising as they expected some breast cells to be present), and that the mammograms and scan don't suggest a carcinoma - hopefully excellent news.
Hope this might be helpful to anyone else who finds a lump to know what happens, and that it's not something to be scared of - 70% of lumps are benign - so go and have it looked at.
