I am sure your treating doctor would have the diagnosis told to you based on the whatever scan reports like MRI or CT Scan which ever was done .
But the gold standard test is the biopsy result which is being awaited .
It can be anything from a simple cyst to a complicated tumor .
check your scan reports .The radiologist would have given his opinion .
There is no need to panic now .Let us hope for the best .Have faith in god .
Faith can move mountains .
Hope this helps you
