Oncological diseases are increasingly attacking a person's life, bringing misfortune to the home. The incidence rate has increased by about 15% over the past 10 years. Every year in Russia alone, 500,000 people are diagnosed with cancer, 60% of whom die. However, oncology does not disrupt a person's life immediately, but gradually. So how does a person die from cancer?
Decreased appetite.
When they die of cancer, the first thing they do is give up meat, because the body consumes a lot of it. He starts eating monotonous, simple food, and then refuses to eat at all.
Fatigue and drowsiness.
Patients begin to sleep more and more, and the further they go, the more difficult it is to wake them up. This is due to a decrease in the metabolic rate due to dehydration and lack of nutrients.
Weakness.
Due to lack of energy, a cancer patient is becoming increasingly weak and cannot perform basic movements every day (for example, turning over).
A vague realization.
Gradually, more and more organs begin to malfunction, including the brain. For this reason, the patient ceases to navigate in space in order to recognize loved ones, and may be mistaken.
Heavy breathing.
When a person dies of cancer, their breathing gradually changes. He begins to breathe irregularly, intermittently. Cheyne-Stokes breathing gradually develops: shallow and rarefied breathing becomes deeper, then less frequent and there is a pause, after which everything repeats. Very often, when a person dies of lung cancer, breathing is loud and wheezing.
Protect yourself from the world.
As the disease progresses, the patient's vital forces leave and protect him from the world: he stops talking, closes in on himself, turns away from the other person during the conversation.
Problems with urination.
Due to low fluid intake, the kidneys gradually begin to fail. It's just that urination becomes almost impossible. Toxic substances enter the bloodstream, and a person dying of cancer gradually falls into a coma.
Swelling of the extremities.
There is swelling of the extremities due to kidney failure. Fluid is not excreted from the body, but accumulates in the body in the form of edema. Minutes before death, blood drains from the periphery. The limbs become cold.
However, due to the timely detection of cancer and proper treatment, 40% of patients overcome this serious disease. Everyone has a chance, if not for a full recovery, then at least for prolonging life (at least for several years) even in the last stages of the disease. Yolo247
