Suspicious Breast Lump

Hello, fairly new to the site.

So weeks ago i had a bit of pain my breast with prompted me to have a feel and i felt a lump upper outer quadrant of the breast. It does feel moveable of some sort.

I had my appointment at breast clinic first an ultrasound and mammagram followed by vacuum biopsy. I spoke to the consultant afterwards who i found was quite harsh about it and just said prepare in your mind its bad news.. was no reassurance or anything and i just cried and wanted to go home to my 2 year old. I recieved my letter from the findings from that day. It says it is 2cm with subtle ridge like nodularity. Can someome please explain more what this means? Does it mean it just has a small noticable ridge to it? Thats why its suspicious? Been living in limbo now for a week and feel like its hell every day ;( im only 33. If anyone can please give some advice etc im here to listen. Thank you x
