lymph nodes

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer I had two infected lymph nodes in my armpit.  I was told by the radiation oncologist that they were encapsulated.  Does that mean the nodes caught all the cancer and most likely it had not spread?

I think that is what "encapsulated" means- I believe that's a really good thing! as far as news goes. I had 16 nodes taken out & 13 were positive- I think you're doing great!
