If you have cancer that spreads to lymph nodes, what is it called?If you have cervical cancer, and it spread into your lymph nodes, do you have lymph node cancer? Or lymphoma? Or just cervical cancer that metastisized to your lymph nodes?
I already survived this crap but my brother was arguing with me saying that since it was in lymph nodes that means its lymphoma. Maybe I am being stupid, but I really don't think I had anything but stage 2B cervical cancer.
Is there another term for cancer spread to lymph nodes? Thanks.

Lymphoma is not the same as cancer that has metastazized to the lymph nodes. It is a blood cancer , like leukemia. Good for you for surviving and getting better.
Answer by Rob
When cancer spreads to your lymph nodes, it DOES NOT mean you have lymphoma. Lymphoma is a separate cancer that begins in your lymph nodes.
