what is considered distant? RW 57& billy bob were discussing some out comes with g5 hanging around I got to the link I think they were saying not as good with distant mets. I have one hip bone area they radiated it but who knows if it's gone.. thanks to all NEPOL

Distant metastases may be in:
M1a: any lymph nodes other than in the pelvic area
M1b: any bones
M1c: any organs (viscera) outside of the pelvic area
