What Does A Painful Lump On The Breast Indicate?

I had a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound last week. Calcification was diagnoses on first mammogram. Right breast. She said 99% cancer. Didn't do a biopsy immediately though and scheduled that in week and a half. I am 51 and no breast cancer in family. How concerned should I be? Large "knot" in breast and it hurts. Should I be panicked?
