It could be scar tissue. you very recently finished with chemo/radiation so it could be just an irritation. Do your best to stay active to keep your mind off it.
Worrying wont change anything so dont make yourself upset by overthinking this. Ive gone thru it 3 times and am still here to tell about it. The last time I had a biopsy, I put it out of my mind and went out and had fun with my children. I told myself I would think about it the day I was scheduled to get the biopsy results. The day before I was diagnosed with Stage IV OC, I did a 25 mile bike ride with my son on a beautiful trail along the river. Hope you are able to free your mind til you get the results.
Best wishes for good results.
