Thank you Dr Marchbein for your response. Wow, that's pretty thick, then. What is the biopsy *most likely* to show? (I see the choices as: nothing abnormal, hyperplasia, hyperplasia with atypia, cancer). Have any numbers for "the thickest I've ever seen with nothing abnormal" in your experience? I will let you know what the results are - probably Monday.
