Answer when out: The answer to the breast lump will be known when it is surgically removed and sent to the Pathologist for microscopic analysis and not before.

Lump and bruise: Sounds like the lump you are scheduled to have removed has changed. You should let your doctor know first thing tomorrow. If you had a biopsy already that can cause a bruise, one that can be delayed at appearing. Call your surgeon...it would be nice not to have to wait weeks.
