Feeling helpless

I honestly really need support right now. I’m waiting for results for my mum and mentally I feel like I’m falling apart. I haven’t left my room, I feel numb and I can’t stop crying or thinking the worst. My brain keeps telling me I’m going to lose her and I can’t switch it off. She’s honestly all I have and I feel like I’m losing myself while waiting for answers.

I can’t cope anymore

I honestly feel like I’m breaking. My mum had some results come back and I’ve completely lost myself over it. I haven’t left my room, I haven’t been acting like myself and I feel like I’ve gone numb. My brain keeps going straight to the worst case scenario and I keep thinking I’m going to lose my mum. I’m mentally exhausted and I feel like I’m drowning in my own thoughts.
My mum is post-menopausal, had a tiny amount of spotting twice only and it never happened again. She had a transvaginal ultrasound showing a 6.5mm lining and a large simple cyst with no solid parts, no abnormal blood flow and no free fluid. The doctor said it could be hyperplasia or worst case cancer and wants to do a D&C/curette.
Has anyone had something similar and it ended up okay? Please be honest because I’m really struggling right now.

Help

My mum is post-menopausal and stopped her periods around 2 years ago. On Mother’s Day she noticed a tiny amount of blood when wiping and then the next day it happened again, but it has never happened since. No pain, no other symptoms, nothing ongoing.
She had a pelvic ultrasound and it showed an endometrial lining of 6.5mm, a large simple cyst with no solid components, no internal vascularity and no free pelvic fluid. She also has a history of fibroids and polyps and is on the larger side.
Reception apparently said "no cancer" over the phone but told us not to say anything because the doctor wants to go over everything tomorrow (bloods, Pap smear and ultrasound results).
I know nobody here can diagnose anything but has anyone had a similar situation where it ended up being something benign? My anxiety is through the roof and my brain keeps jumping to worst case scenarios.
