              Well that is particularly unsettling Kathy. My father’s was a 2.7mm. I’m hoping to God that the mitotic rate is nill and of course the clear SLND. I guess we should request for scans upfront to make sure it hasn’t spread?? We haven’t even got the official path results from the surgery back yet and I’m pretty much freaking out now after reading your response.

              How long did you have your primary before you caught it? (or do you have any idea?) . This thing obviously grew in a matter of 5 months for my dad because he was checked in December. The team of docs are going about it step by step and will most likely refer if needed.

              Thank you for your response.
