There are so many different kinds of cancers. It sounds like you don't have multifocal lung cancer, Joe. I think there might be a confusion between nodes (lymph nodes) and nodules. The cancerous lesions in multifocal adenocarcinoma are nodules, within the lung; they are not lymph nodes. I think this distinction is important because it can affect treatment decisions. For example, chemotherapy and radiation are not necessarily done for multifocal lung cancer. There are lots of threads on this forum that might be even more helpful to you.

I have multi focal Adenocarcinoma and have had a wedge removed from one lobe and a middle lobe lobectomy, plus radiation on both right and left lungs. Haven't had chemo yet and hope I never do. I also have COPD . But the good Lord has me on this earth yet for a reason and I take each each day as it comes and count all the wonderful blessings I do have. Blessings to each andevery one of you

But multifocal adenocarcinoma can go to the lymph nodes.
