Hi again, Jeff.
I was looking at the biopsy results for my partner. The cribriform is listed as 3.5 cm. Can this be accurate?
I just got extremely scared.
I'd greatly appreciate your thoughts.

That is physically impossible. 2.54 cm to an inch. That would mean the cribriform Which would be unusual at around .3 mm would have to be an inch and a third in size. They may meant millimeters and if it is millimeters, then it is still way too big. Cribriform is measured in tenths of a millimeter.

Something is very wrong with this number. When you consider that a needle was used to get the biopsy, it’s pretty impossible to come up with such huge numbers.
