YET ANOTHER THING I DONT UNDERSTAND

Hi All

I have another question that I hope somebody might be able to help with as it is bugging me. How come some grade 1 tumours have lymph node involvement and some grade 3tumours (supposedly more aggressive ) dont’t??

Surely the grade 3 ones would make it to the nodes quicker being more aggessive?

Does anyone know?

Love to all

Sorry I can’t answer your question but as my friend keeps reminding me ‘cancer doesn’t read the textbooks’. Everybody’s cancer is different with varying outcomes.

Grade 1 tumours although less aggressive have been there a long time growing. The bigger the tumour the more likely it is to spread too. Apart from that I dont know. Tumours are unpredictable little buggers at time!!

not sure… i had grade 3 ( agressive = growing at a faster rate) and had 7 nodes removed only
