Armpit lump

I found a lump in my armpit several weeks ago. My doctor prescribed 10 days of keflex as he felt it might be an infection. This seemed reasonable as I had recently switched deodorant. After the 10 days of medicine, the lump may be smaller; however, I think there may now be two lumps. They aren't necessarily tender although I have several tender areas elsewhere.

When I first visited my doctor, he indicated if the keflex didn't work, he would order a mammogram. Today when I called him, he simply referred me to a surgeon.

What should I expect?? Could other sore areas be related? The fleshy part of my upper arm is sore as well as a sore area on a lower rib.

This is very scary. I had a mammogram just about 2 months ago.
