How long can advanced gastric cancer live
summary
Last week, when I went home, my mother said that a relative of my family had gastric cancer. He was young, and his family was very worried about his illness. When I visited him, I found that he was very weak, especially he couldn't eat much, and his face was very pale. Now let me tell you how long he can live with advanced gastric cancer.
How long can advanced gastric cancer live
First, the only way to treat cancer is radical resection, that is, total resection. If not, survival with cancer can be achieved. Survival with cancer has the following characteristics: prolonged survival. The survival time of patients with advanced cancer or metastasis or recurrence after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy is 3 months in short, and only one year in the elderly. If we can take Chinese medicine in time, the survival time can be extended, the shorter is 2 years, the older is 6 years or even more than 10 years or longer.
Second, improve the quality of life. If patients with advanced cancer or cancer metastasis or recurrence insist on taking traditional Chinese medicine, all kinds of discomfort, including symptoms and signs, can be quickly improved, even cachexia can be alleviated. After half a year to a year, most of them recover their physical strength, eat normally, and live on their own
Third, survival can not be generalized, it depends on the patient's age, constitution, mentality, pathological stage of cancer, whether there is metastasis, surgical efficacy and other factors. Generally, there will be upper abdominal discomfort or pain of unknown cause, sometimes accompanied by belching, acid reflux and vomiting. If the cancer is located in the cardia, the patient may feel that eating is not unobstructed; if the cancer is located in the pylorus, when obstruction occurs, the patient may vomit rotten overnight food. Conservative treatment is recommended to improve the quality of life and reduce some complications of patients with advanced gastric cancer.
