I'm glad that you got the biopsy done and didn't just take her word for it. No one can tell you for sure that something isn't cancer without a biopsy.
7 to 10 days is a long time to get biopsy results and although many have waited that long, I would call her office in 3-4 days to see if the results are back.
Good luck.
