Will I die from stomach cancer

Will I die if I get stomach cancer? Many factors in life can lead to the occurrence of stomach cancer. In the early stages of stomach cancer, the symptoms are not particularly obvious, so it is difficult for people to detect the disease. In the late stages of the disease, many people are very concerned about how long they can live. In fact, this question varies from person to person, and there is no accurate answer.

How long patients with advanced gastric cancer can survive depends mainly on whether the treatment is appropriate and the patient's physical function. In addition, patients with advanced gastric cancer and their families should learn more about the treatment of advanced gastric cancer and communicate more with their attending physicians, which will help prolong the survival of patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Whether the treatment method is appropriate is the most important factor affecting how long patients with advanced gastric cancer can survive. As for the treatment method of advanced gastric cancer, the possibility of surgical resection is very low, and most of them rely on drug treatment, that is, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Gastric cancer is a type of digestive tract tumor that is more sensitive to chemotherapy, and the treatment effect is more obvious. The chemotherapy methods for advanced gastric cancer mainly include single-agent chemotherapy and combined chemotherapy. The effect of combined chemotherapy is better than single-agent chemotherapy.

However, the optimal chemotherapy duration for advanced gastric cancer is still unclear, because as the duration of chemotherapy increases, its treatment toxicity also gradually increases, and it has no significant effect on prolonging the survival of patients with advanced gastric cancer. Therefore, chemotherapy drugs and chemotherapy duration should be determined based on tumor remission, symptom relief, and treatment-related toxicity. People should pay attention to the symptoms of gastric cancer. Although the short-term effect is not as obvious as chemotherapy, the long-term effect is good, and it has a significant effect in improving the quality of life and prolonging survival.

Gastric cancer patients must pay more attention to their living habits. Bad living habits will not only lead to the onset of the disease, but also lead to the deterioration of the disease. The harm is something we cannot ignore. If the disease is found, it must be treated as soon as possible, and do not miss the best time for treatment.
