Found a lump and waiting for an appointment

Hi, I found a lump a couple of nights ago and my GP has refered me to breast clinic. Im 48. The lump is pea sized, doesnt move. I have  a bruise, bruise coloured not red in the same place as lump, about the size of a thumb print. I train dogs for a living so its possible that a dog has jumped up and the bruise is coincidental? Im very scared, I lost my hubby to cancer 4 years ago and my youngest son is only 12. I have no one to cre for him if I die. Waiting for clinic appt and trying not to let my mind race :frowning:
