If I could get a little help on my path report (see below) - it sure would help me!! I talked to Doctor but when he was giving me his explanations, etc. my head was spinning and I didn't retain alot.   I am scheduled for a re-excision to get clear margins.  What is the norm for clear margins?  Thanks in advance!!
