Ok I don't know if this is where I should be posting this question, but here goes. I had a mammogram a few weeks ago that came back suspicious. My doctor immediately scheduled me for a breast ultrasound which still was not conclusive. Now I am going in for a biopsy and I am scared and nervous. My grandmother passed away from breast cancer so I do have family history. Although I don't smoke anymore I did which also increases my risk. My question is does anyone know what the chances are that I have this biopsy and that the results be in my favor? Wish me luck and say a prayer.

Thanks!!!!
