Hard small lump on upper left breast

hi, I’ve got to go to my first appointment but I’ve been seen by GP who has fast track me to see a Specialist to rule Out breast cancer. I just want to know what is likely to happen at this appointment. It says it’s a breast surgery clinic on the letter does that mean they’re going to do a biopsy? Will I likely just have a mammogram? I’ve never had one before, but I am 50.

    Hi , it’s standard to say Breast Surgery .

     was there last week. I’m waiting for my biopsy results this Friday . They’ll examine you and probably do a mammogram as you haven’t had one previously .  I was almost 52 when I had my first .

    Try not to worry, It may be a cyst , I had one drained 18 months ago . Good luck !
