    stage 5
    my pathology reports for the metastasized lymph nodes were labeled level 5 if that helps.

    Search the internet
    Hi, Debbie

    I just did a google search, with the combined terms "stage 5" and cancer. Put the "stage 5" in quotes. Several hits came up, for several different kinds of cancer. The Lance Armstrong LiveStrong page has stuff on it about "stage 5 cancer". So, I guess there is an actual "stage 5" cancer?

    Edit: Actually, upon reading some of these articles, I'm NOT seeing anything in them that describes a "Stage 5", so I guess the question is still out there.
