Your radiologist’s impression is low probability of malignancy, not confirmed malignancy. It sounds like a low 4.
Several years ago, I had a 4.1 cm (golf ball) lesion that, according my doctors, had all the markings of the dreaded C word. In addition, they found a suspicious area under my armpit. The FNA biopsy was unsuccessful, so I had to have surgery. I admit, waiting was torture, but both turned out to be benign.
For the past 8 years, I’ve been a Bi-Rad 3 for a questionable lesion (most likely a lymph node). However, 2 years ago a separate lesion appeared. That lesion (oval hypoechoic) grew within a year, as did another 1.5 x 1.3 cm enlarged lymph node. As of 3 weeks ago, the node is no longer present, but the lesion is. So the impression is, “probably benign.” But, as usual, I need to return again in 6 months for another diagnostic 3D mammogram and ultrasound.
What should you do? What everyone else suggested - go about life as normal as possible until you know the results. As my awesome doctor likes to say (famous quote) - you can’t control what life throws at you, but you can control how you respond to it. All you can do is take care of you. If your anxiety medications aren’t helping, maybe ask your doctor to either increase or change it. Or perhaps combine your current dosage with walking. Exercise boosts endorphins and lowers stress. If I get stressed out, I go for walks...go to the park/lake, feed the ducks, etc. Again, you have to do whatever it takes to be strong for you and your family. Hang in there, Sdave.
