I can understand your Anxiety, if you are not comfortable waiting until Feb 28th tell them so and usually they will try to get you in earlier. Also I was told there are very many benign conditions in the breast tissue that can appear. I just had a biopsy done for microcalcifications in the breast and it turned out to be nothing. My surgeon told me i could wait another 6 months before having the biopsy and I said no thanks I want to do it right now! Try not to get to worried though, I wasted alot of energy on the what ifs, Good Luck!!
