I know that by now you have seen your doctor and have answers to many of these questions. While we try to monitor our message board regularly to make sure that all questions are answered, sometimes we do miss a few. You stated that you did receive a packet of information from WIN ABC and I am glad that you found the information helpful.

I want to inform you that we are available to speak with you directly or through email if you have unanswered questions. Although we are not health care providers, we are able to answer many questions. If we do not know the answer, then we are able to contact any number of health care professionals with whom we work and ask them for information on related health concerns.

We always like to encourage individuals to ask their own doctors if they have specific questions. Sometimes if a doctor is not available, then a nurse assistant might be able to answer some questions. In terms of pathology reports, you might be able to speak directly to the pathology lab in order to explain certain definitions that are not clear to you.

If you still are unsure of the meaning of your biopsy results or need more clarification as to various meanings, please call us at (626) 332-2255 or send me an email and I will help you in anyway that I can.
