Biopsy

Hi, I found a lump about 3 weeks ago went to the doctors they said it was a cyst as it is painful but sent me for an ultrasound just to be on the safe side, I then went to the hospital and the go there felt the lump also said it felt like a cyst, I had the ultrasound was then sent for a mammogram then had a biospy. After all these test I guessed what they found wasn't a cyst. Saw the doctor there after all the test and as I was by myself I was quite scared by that point, the doctor then told me that what they found he is 90% sure its cancer then followed by saying that they have found it early and they it hasn't spread to my lymph nodes and it's very treatable. I have my follow up appointment next week and I'm just confused at how they can say this straight away without getting the results back. Am I being stupid that a small part of me is still hoping that the results come back clear. Or was that the doctor telling me I have cancer? 

Thank you
