How long can a patient with advanced lung cancer and low white blood cell count live?

1. It is not clear how long a patient with advanced lung cancer and low white blood cell count can survive.

2. Lung cancer originates from malignant tumors of the bronchial mucosa or glands of the lungs, and is mainly caused by long-term smoking, air pollution, ionizing radiation, genetics and other factors. Patients generally experience symptoms such as chest pain and hissing, and need timely treatment. Blood routine, chest CT, lung puncture biopsy and other examinations should be used to clarify the condition and actively treat it.

3. Advanced lung cancer requires chemotherapy. Since chemotherapy is not specific and kills cancer cells, it has a certain toxicity to normal immune active cells, such as granulocytes, lymphocytes, macrophages, etc., which may lead to low white blood cell count. Drug treatment can be used under the guidance of a doctor, such as recombinant human granulocyte-stimulating factor injection. Through active treatment, the patient's symptoms can be improved and the quality of life can be improved, but it is incorrect to say how long the patient can live.

4. In daily life, we need to strengthen nutrition. We can eat some high-protein foods, such as beef, fish, chicken, etc., and avoid eating spicy and greasy foods, such as spicy chicken, spicy hot pot, fried chicken steak, braised pork, etc.
