What Causes Mild Abdominal Pain?

Hi, I am 49, male and been suffering with mild abdominal pain. I have Non-Hodgkins lymphoma and my CT of the abdomen shows mild thickening seen in the terminal ileum. I had a Colonoscopy with biopsy. Nodular mucosa was found in the rectum. The rectal mucosa appeared somewhat nodular and multiple biopsies were taken. The rest of the colon appeared normal including the cecum, appendiceal orifice and ileocecal valve. The terminal ileum was intubated and appeared to have lymphoid hyperplasia with multiple biopsies taken. No ulcerations, stricture or mass lesions seen in the terminal ileum visualized multiple biopsies were obtained and sent to pathology. The mucosa apperared less nodular on fetroflexion. What does this mean?

What ever the findings are there these are suggestive of multiple pathologies of gastro-intestinal tract, some are significant some may not be specific, over all findings need to be correlated with the clinical condition and further investigations may require for final diagnosis, hope this information helps, take care.
