Thanks everyone for being so caring and supportive, I am so grateful. Got the results back
Two malignant masses in left breast, but the right breast is cancer free. Just atypical ductal hyperplasia that does need to be removed and evaluated.
So, now I need to get a referral to a breast surgeon from my primary care doc, meet with the surgeon, get the surgery, at which time I am guessing I might find out what stage it is???
And then on to treatment of some sort.
And then wait and see if I beat it or not.
Thanks everyone for being here.
I haven’t cried yet. I am sure I will at some point.
Right now I am just focused on what steps I need to take next, and then fears of pain after the surgery.
One step at a time.

Breast cancer is beatable. It's a long road but my mom survived it in her 70s after surgery and a short bout of chemotherapy.
You might look into the Fisetin protocol to help with cancer after surgery. Other supplements that support the immune system are glutathione and ghk-cu.

Doing well. 
She is 85 today, and in so many ways, as strong as she ever was! Sees the oncologist on an annual basis, and has received a clean bill of health every single year.
She lost her own mother to the disease in her early 60s back in 1982, just to give an indication of how medical science has progressed over the years & decades.
Wishing you the very best in your treatment, and will continue to keep you in my thoughts.
You got this.
My 1st cousin and a friend both lost a breast. My cousin opted to not have any type of breast reconstruction and my friend did. Both are doing well and happy with their decisions. Of course, recovery for both was a process.
Hugs for you.
