Can someone explain what metastic disease means?

Hi. I am so confused right now. I called my doctor to find out more information about the Neratinib Trial. One of the nurses called me back because she said that I didn't qualify because I had metastic disease. I explained that I was confused because I thought I was at stage IIIA. I had 7/12 nodes involved but it hadn't spread to any other organs. The nurse said that because I had it in my lymph nodes, it probably was in my blood stream and then considered it metastic. I finished Herceptin in February of 2007.

Can someone help me?
