Ann,
 
We had this problem at one time and found that the tissue was being left out to 
dry during grossing, and the result was that the sections were actually cutting 
thicker due to difficulty sectioning.  Is this a possibility for you?  The 
drying out could also happen at the physicians office as well, if they lay them 
out on gauze and then put them in formalin.  The biopsies dry out quickly due 
to their size.
 
Good luck,
Shelly
