Terminal symptoms and signs of gastric cancer

What are the terminal symptoms and signs of gastric cancer?

With the accelerated pace of modern life and the large intake of high-calorie and high-protein foods, our digestive system is facing tremendous pressure. If the stomach is irritated for a long time, it is likely to cause gastric cancer. Gastric cancer has become a common disease and one of the important causes of death in humans.

So what are the symptoms when a person with stomach cancer is near death?

1. Coughing is a common symptom. Gastric cancer patients often have severe coughing before they die. When they cough, they will have bloody sputum, accompanied by chest pain and chest tightness. This symptom is difficult to control.

2. Abdominal pain. This pain symptom will persist throughout the course of the disease, and before the patient dies, the pain symptoms will be further aggravated, and a lump will appear in the upper abdomen of the patient, making the patient feel more painful.

3. Liver pain. Patients with advanced gastric cancer often have liver metastasis. The liver will swell and may cause ascites, leading to pain in the liver area and causing the patient to show a painful expression.

4. When gastric cancer develops to the late stage, many patients will experience unexplained symptom of painless hematuria, which often occurs before the patient is about to die.

5. The patient is in a state of weakness. When life is about to end, the patient feels weak all over, his body is seriously weakened, and the upper abdominal pain brings extreme pain, making the patient experience unspeakable pain before death.

6. The patient's skin ulcerated for unknown reasons and could not be cured after long-term treatment.

7. Late-stage patients will feel that their throats are blocked when swallowing food, resulting in difficulty in swallowing, accompanied by symptoms of stinging when swallowing.

8. Before the patient is about to die, the headache symptoms become obvious and worsen. As the headache continues, physical reactions such as visual impairment and vomiting may occur.
