Welcome back to OCF! Hopefully this time will also bring good news of being negative for cancer. The lump could be scar tissue or some other issue besides cancer. Waiting 6 weeks for a scheduled biopsy and ultrasound sounds like a long wait. Im sure you must be a nervous wreck about what your lump may be. Try your best to stay busy with projects, reading, hobbies or things that keep your mind focused, that will help pass the time until your appointment. You may also want to try getting an appointment with another qualified doctor. You never know, maybe you'll get lucky and get in much quicker someplace else.

Best wishes with everything. Please let us know how you make out.
