Waiting for mammogram and biopsy results. I'm so scared

Had a lumpectomy 16 years ago which was a DCIS. Found a large lump 4 weeks ago. Received a letter today saying it's an ill defined legion. Will find out results of mammogram and biopsy on the 26th. Everyone keeps saying don't worry it's probably a cyst. I'm so scared. My daughter suffers with really bad anxiety and if she looses me I don't know how she will cope.
