Before I got sick, I believe everyone fantasized about living a healthy and long life. After the cancer was diagnosed, I felt that all the fantasy bubbles were burst, and I don’t know where the road was. "How long can you live after having lung cancer?" In fact, not only patients will ask, but doctors will sometimes think about this question.
Uncle was diagnosed with lung cancer for five years and is very healthy now. He told his secret to anti-cancer, which was nothing more than two points
Uncle Ma, who is in his sixties, is enjoying his rural life. Unexpectedly, a "wind and cold" disturbed him. He thought it was a minor illness and pain that would soon be cured, but he did not expect that he coughed up bleeding. Later, he went to a big city for examination and was diagnosed with lung cancer. He was hospitalized for treatment. Under standardized treatment, his uncle's condition was controlled and he was discharged after a period of time.
But the cancer did not go away. Five years later, he developed symptoms again. The old man decided to continue to fight against the disease bravely, and this time he won again. I was diagnosed with lung cancer, but I didn’t expect to live well now. The uncle’s secret is two points:
① Professional treatment
Radiation and chemotherapy
Small cell lung cancer is very aggressive and develops very quickly. Patients often have edema, coughing up blood, long-term coughing, etc. when visiting the doctor, and edema usually occurs on the head, even affecting the ability to see objects, and will cause frequent pain. This is because the tumor compresses the blood vessels that transport blood upward, affecting blood reflux.
chemoradiation and chemotherapy can make the tumor smaller and improve edema. At the same time, the pressure in the chest cavity will also be relieved a lot. In addition, if the cancer cells have metastasized to the spine and bones, chemotherapy can also be used.
Targeted therapy
In addition to the above commonly used methods, there are also targeted therapy now, which can improve the survival rate of advanced patients. If the control is stable, it is also possible to live for ten years more. Patients with advanced stage usually do not meet the conditions for surgery, so don’t give up easily. You can try targeted drugs.
Now the drug development and update are relatively fast, and new drugs will always come out. We need to actively communicate with the doctor, and maybe there will be a medicine that suits you. The side effects that everyone is worried about can be relieved by medication after the tumor is controlled, and there will generally be no major problems.
②Good mentality
Uncle Ma chatted with medical staff during the hospitalization treatment. A sentence he often said is "eat and drink." It can be seen that his mentality is good. Not eating or drinking will not help the disease at all, it will also make the body weak and reduce resistance. Negative emotions will encourage the flames of cancer cells and may worsen.
A good attitude needs to be adjusted by yourself. You can chat with people who have successfully fought cancer and ask for experience. You can also learn more about relevant knowledge. Once you have a certain understanding of the enemy, you will not be so panicked. You can also do something to make yourself happy. If you feel high, your sensitivity to pain will decrease, which will help improve the treatment effect.
Why do some people die not long after they are diagnosed with cancer?
One: The types of diseases are different ;
The second: It is found that it is different early and late;
Third: What method is used to treat it, and whether an unreliable method is used will affect the direction of the disease. Everyone hopes that they will find out the cancer as soon as possible, but they do not pay attention to their usual symptoms. Let me tell you what symptoms will occur in the early stage of lung cancer.
Because the tumor grows on the lungs, the symptoms are very similar to upper respiratory tract diseases, but they do not respond to drugs and will gradually worsen. Therefore, when the symptoms do not relieve for a long time, the alarm bell will be sounded. Some tumors are close to the trachea, which will affect people's voice and are more sensitive to external smoke and odor. It is easy to smell it and cough dry cough .
Wait until the tumor grows up, the surrounding tissues are congested and necrotic, and there will also be mucus and blood yarn . The body temperature rises, which is the last warning for the body.
Fourth: How long does life expectancy after cancer is still related to the quality of the body . In comparison, young and middle-aged people have higher survival rates. After all, their repair and immunity are higher, but if the body has other underlying diseases, the elderly who have not taken care of regularly may be healthy.
In short, there is a reason for passing away not long ago. It may be because the tumor was taken, or the body was too weak, and the operation itself was also risky.
Can traditional Chinese medicine treat lung cancer?
People have inexplicable fears about knife and chemotherapy. Those who can take medicine to solve the problem will definitely not harm their vitality. But to be honest, traditional Chinese medicine still lacks certain strength in the face of cancer. Everyone should understand this. It can be recommended to cooperate with Western medicine to assist, but it cannot take the lead alone. If someone says that a Chinese medicine prescription has disappeared after taking a Chinese medicine prescription, don’t believe it easily to prevent being deceived.
Traditional medicine focuses on strengthening the body and restoring the body's vitality , but the tumor is a stubborn substance, and there may be residuals when it is removed, let alone taking medicine? Compared with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, it is like a rabbit and a tortoise, and cannot keep up with the development speed of cancer cells.
What kind of people can take traditional Chinese medicine?
is in recovery period after surgery, or has side effects that need to be improved, and people who are weak and want to improve their tolerance can also use it.
Don’t judge based on your own experience. When facing tumors, you must believe in professional doctors and not go to extremes. At the same time, you must also understand one thing, that is, Chinese medicine also has "three-part poisons". You should not blindly use large doses. Even if you are desperate, don’t listen to them. However, Chinese medicine is slowly making its mark in the treatment of tumors, and there may be related new drugs in the future.
If the tumor can stay in the body safely, it is also a good situation and it may not be possible to kill it. Eliminating it is a last resort, but if it can be controlled, it can coexist, which is also beneficial to the patient. Finally, instead of thinking about headbreaking treatment in the end, it is better to prevent it when you are healthy, do a good job of checking, and quitting bad habits. This is the key point.
