Like your biopsy mine always have a lot of other medical terminology however it is not always a good idea to google for answers. I am not worrying too much and will have another check in 4 months as I have been having for the last 5+ years. If you are concerned I would certainly get that referral and get it checked. There is no substitute for peace of mind. Good luck and keep us posted. Gabriele
