How long can a patient with advanced stomach cancer who can t walk talk about severe anemia?

For patients with advanced gastric cancer, once they can't eat, obvious emaciation is in the final period, and how long they can live depends on the specific condition of the patient, maybe half a month or a few months...

The prognosis of patients with advanced disease is poor, and the 5-year survival rate is less than 10%. Gastric cancer patients and their families often find it difficult to accept such a reality, and should actively adjust their mentality, accept the norms**, and avoid too much worry and fear. Pay attention to a reasonable diet, strengthen nutrition, choose food according to the patient's preferences, and pay attention to eating small and frequent meals, quitting alcohol, and quitting smoking.

Symptomatic care. Patients can always have symptomatic ** drugs at home, and the specific medication should be carefully followed by the doctor's instructions.

You have to go to the doctor for this, if the doctor says how long you can live, how long can you live, but it doesn't mean that there are no exceptions, or let Kiki teach you to take medicine for health, and you can live by taking medicine every day.

A small percentage of gastric cancer patients will have different degrees of anemia, and these gastric cancer patients generally present with pale palebraal conjunctiva, pale nail beds, paleness, fatigue, loss of appetite, palpitation, etc.

A small percentage of gastric cancer patients will have different degrees of anemia, and these gastric cancer patients generally present with pale palebraal conjunctiva, pale nail beds, paleness, fatigue, loss of appetite, palpitation, etc. Moreover, gastric cancer patients can have obvious manifestations of blood loss, such as hematemesis, melena, etc., or long-term chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, and the clinical manifestations are not obvious.

Why is this happening? This is because the local cancer foci of gastric cancer due to rapid growth and insufficient blood supply cause ischemia and necrosis and shedding of local cancer tissues, and its blood vessels will also rupture and bleed accordingly. If the blood vessels are thick, heavy bleeding such as hematemesis and melena will occur; If the blood vessels are thinner and last longer, long-term chronic blood loss occurs.

Anemia occurs when the amount of blood is lost too much and exceeds the body's ability to regenerate. The degree of anemia ranges from mild to severe, and the degree of anemia has little correlation with the severity of the disease.

Anemia is one of the common symptoms of stomach cancer, but it can be subtle in the early stages. In addition, many times, anemia can be the first symptom of stomach cancer patients. The most common factor associated with the occurrence of anemia in gastric cancer is bleeding, followed by nutritional disorders.

Gastrointestinal bleeding is the most important factor in anemia in gastric cancer patients. Surface necrosis and ulceration or cauliflower-like growth of gastric cancer often cause bleeding, and long-term blood loss can cause anemia. The degree of anemia is not directly related to the size and extent of the tumor.

Anemia is mostly normal-cell, normal-pigmented. However, when bleeding is high, iron deficiency anemia can be small-cell, hypochromic type. Anemia may be reduced with iron supplements** in the early stages, but is often not effective in the later stages.

Long-term loss of appetite, dysphagia, vomiting, diarrhea, etc., caused by gastric cancer near the cardia area, resulting in reduced food intake or malabsorption, can cause deficiency of calories, egg quality, vitamins, iron, folic acid, etc., and aggravate anemia.

Anemia of unknown origin should raise suspicion for malignancy. Anyone over the age of 40, especially males, who has a history of ulcer and finds that anemia is iron deficiency without obvious cause of iron deficiency, must be considered to rule out gastric cancer. Anemia is sometimes the primary manifestation of gastric cancer, while gastrointestinal and systemic symptoms are often mild and go unnoticed.

The first of the cases of gastric cancer anemia is for gastric cancer because it is much more severe than anemia. Stomach cancer is effective with surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy, and anemia can be reduced or disappeared. If the anaemia is severe, blood transfusions may be given.

Vitamin B12 and folic acid are not effective for this type of anemia. When iron deficiency anemia is complicated by tumor blood loss, iron supplements** are effective for anemia in the early stage, but when the cause is not identified, it should not be rushed**, which complicates the diagnosis, ignores the exploration of the tumor, and causes serious consequences.
