@ann...not a big deal.
I didn't mean for anyone to go out of guidelines. Was simply a vocabulary definition...which I could easily Google...no concerns. Wishing you and your husband the very best! Have a great day!

Easier said than done actually, @dazlin. Google returns few clear, plain language answers regarding the definitions of "reactive and predominant lymphoid nodules". Here's an extensive article from Science Direct on
- Lymph nodes https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/neuroscience/lymph-node

Additionally I found the following:
"Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is a type of lymphoma that develops from abnormal B lymphocytes (B cells, which are a type of white blood cell). NLPHL is not very common – around 1 in 20 cases (5%) of Hodgkin lymphoma are NLPHL."
In this case predominant means that lymphocytes are the predominant cell type.

I'd be interested in hearing how your hematologist explains these terms to you. Please let us know.
