If your anything like me nothing will calm you until you find out nothing is wrong. I've been through ultrasounds and biopsies on breasts and unbearable anxiety until I find out everything is all right. I did deep breathing it helps but only for short amount of time.

This is a very common scenario for women since they check out every little abnormality in breasts to detect cancer in it's earliest stage. And it causes bad and unnecessary anxiety. If it helps any knowing that there many other things it could be other than what you are fearing. Ive had fluid filled cysts, fibroid cysts, calcification and one time I even had a biopsy on something they saw and it ended up being scar tissue from other biopsies.

So do those deep breathing and try to remember all the other possibilities and you will get through this just fine.
