    I'm sorry I can't help you. I really don't know but the boards are quiet during the day. I'm sure someone will be able to help this evening. Best wishes to you.

    It sounds like you hade some lymph nodes light up in your abdomen. "Reactive" usually means that it's the result of infection not cancer. Sub centimeter is also good as larger nodes tend to indicate malignancy. Your doctor should be able to explain all of it to you, but none of it seems to be pointing to mets if that's what you're thinking.
