What will happen if you get cancer and don't treat your body?

If you are terminally ill, it is really better to choose euthanasia with dignity than to lie in a hospital bed with a tube inserted. Of course, the premise is that euthanasia can be chosen at that time. Again, respecting life is a kind of kindness, and respecting death is a kind of progress. I am in favor of euthanasia!

Cancer is an important disease that threatens people's life and health in modern society. However, the high cost of cancer treatment makes people feel scared and discouraged about his treatment. Moreover, poor prognosis is also a major reason why people refuse treatment. So what will happen to their bodies if they don't treat cancer?

(1) is getting thinner and thinner. Cancer is a wasting disease. The proliferation and diffusion of cancer cells need a lot of energy, which reduces the energy supply for normal body tissue function. Moreover, the discomfort caused by cancer will reduce people's appetite and reduce the absorption function of digestive tract. People will lose weight, which will cause muscle atrophy in severe cases. In the end, it will be inconvenient to walk and life can't take care of itself.

(2) pain. The spread of cancer cells will invade normal tissues and nerves. If it is not treated in time, it will spread faster and spread to the brain and nerves, resulting in severe and persistent pain in the local area and even the whole body, which will gradually increase with the aggravation of the disease. ?

(3) Symptoms of digestive tract. Severe cancer cell diffusion will involve the intestine, leading to a lump growing in the intestine, which will cause intestinal obstruction, physical discomfort will reduce appetite, gastrointestinal function will decline, which will lead to absorption obstruction and generally cause vomiting and anorexia. And severe gastrointestinal inflammation and ulcers will occur.

(4) liver failure. If the spread and pathological changes of cancer cells involve the liver, it will first destroy the liver function, such as jaundice and elevated transaminase. If not treated and corrected in time, it will eventually lead to liver failure, liver diseases and even systemic diseases.

(5) renal failure. Many toxins in the body need to be excreted through the kidneys and urine. If this step goes wrong, it will seriously lead to uremia. Without treatment after cancer diagnosis, cancer cells will invade the urinary system, in which the ureter is a fragile part of the urinary system. Once the ureter is affected by cancer cells, it will hinder the urination of the kidney, thus affecting the kidney, and renal failure will affect life and health.

(6) problems with the respiratory system. Pneumonia is a common symptom of cancer patients, which is related to the spread of cancer cells to the lungs, affecting the normal physiological function of the lungs, secreting a lot of secretions, affecting normal breathing, reducing the immune ability of trachea, bronchus and lungs, and easily causing respiratory diseases and pneumonia. What's more, it will eventually lead to dyspnea and death due to lung failure.

(7) Neuropsychiatric symptoms. The brain is the highest control center of our body. If cancer cells invade the brain, the brain's normal regulation of the body will be threatened, which will easily lead to neurological symptoms such as insanity, aphasia, paralysis and tremor, which are mostly irreversible.

(8) Emotions are easily out of control. People can't take care of themselves in life, and physical discomfort and even pain can cause strong emotional reactions. Long-term depression and pain will not only make patients unable to spend the rest of their lives well, but also lead to conflicts with close people because of emotional out of control.
