Diagnosed yesterday, small calcifications in my left breast.

I don't really have a question yet, I'm just scared and trying to find good info without Dr. Googling everything. I don't know what kind of cancer, I have appointment with the surgeon in the morning and oncologist in the afternoon.
My grandma had a mastectomy in '67 and lived to 93 so I'm hopeful.

Just got diagnosed with high grade DCIS on 3/7 and it’s been a very scary/nerve racking time.
I had an MRI not too long after that and ultrasound to investigate further a couple of areas of unknown masses in my other breast. Doctor says it’s not too concerning to her and MRI picks up everything but since they don’t know for sure what it is they have to biopsy. The last thing I need is more to worry about. I’m trying to think positively that these small masses are benign but it’s so difficult to not worry and wonder what if…. How does everyone get through the process from diagnosis to surgery.
