I can hear the voice of Chinese medicine

Chapter 200 The old man doesn’t use Western medicine, so he is always willing to take Chinese medicine.

Lin Yongzhen obviously didn't expect that the old man would be so stubborn and regarded Western medicine chemotherapy and surgery as a tiger.

I would rather not receive treatment than accept Western medicine surgery and chemotherapy.

Are there any risks with surgical chemotherapy?
On this point, Lin Yongzhen, as a Western medicine doctor, still has a say.

Even though he has only been in the hospital for a few years, as a master's student at a medical university, he has seen a lot of cancer patients, and he often hears his parents mention that so-and-so has cancer, fearing that he may not have long to live. Head.

He has heard too many things like this and has seen many in the hospital.

Chemotherapy has risks, and they are extremely risky. There is no doubt about this. Even The Lancet has issued a reminder that chemotherapy has risks.

Speaking of chemotherapy, Lin Yongzhen met such a patient’s family member, Lao Xu, in the Gastroenterology Department of the Second Provincial Hospital a year ago.

When talking about his wife, Lao Xu burst into tears. He said that the decision he regretted most in his life was to let his wife undergo chemotherapy.

Not to mention the pain she suffered, she passed away after only four cycles of chemotherapy.

He was fine before chemotherapy, but his condition became worse and worse after chemotherapy. The tumor not only did not shrink, but became larger and larger.

Regarding chemotherapy, many people believe that cancer cannot be cured at all, and chemotherapy will only increase pain.

So, after getting cancer, do you need chemotherapy?

The famous medical journal "The Lancet" once published a study that observed 1383 breast cancer patients and nearly [-] non-small cell lung cancer patients. Among them, [-] patients received chemotherapy. A death occurred, so a reminder was issued: "Chemotherapy is risky and should be used with caution."

Nowadays, many hospitals and doctors do not have strict indications for using chemotherapy. We must always remember that chemotherapy is a double-edged sword. Chemotherapy can kill cancer cells as well as normal cells.

Chemotherapy is not 100% effective for cancer. The effective rate that chemotherapy can achieve is actually only about 30%. However, if you do not understand the indications and directly give chemotherapy to patients regardless of whether they can tolerate chemotherapy, this will not only fail to benefit, but It may also accelerate the condition and increase the patient's pain.

and……

First, not all cancer patients are suitable for chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is not suitable for people who are extremely weak, in cachexia, severely infected, have severely low white blood cells or platelets, have poor coagulation function, and have obvious abnormalities in liver and kidney function.

At this time, chemotherapy not only fails to save lives, but also accelerates the patient's death.

Second, for advanced cancer, the indications for chemotherapy should be strictly controlled

For late-stage cancer, it is undoubtedly the most abused stage of chemotherapy. Many doctors believe that it is already in the advanced stage anyway, and they should treat the disease as a living horse!Even patients are given chemotherapy in order to increase their financial income.

This is a completely wrong approach. So far, no method can cure advanced cancer. Chemotherapy for patients with advanced cancer should be more cautious, cautious, and more cautious. The patient's physical condition should be fully evaluated, and the patient and his family should be fully communicated with each other. Communicate and strictly grasp the indications for chemotherapy. This is the greatest responsibility to cancer patients.

However, leaving cancer alone because chemotherapy carries huge risks is also irresponsible to the patient.

What's more, the patient is his cousin's biological grandfather. Lin Yongzhen feels that he cannot ignore it and must take care of it.

Thinking of this, Lin Yongzhen's face became extremely serious and serious: "Grandpa Lu, I know you regard chemotherapy as a tiger, but since there is a problem with the body, then we have to actively treat it, right? We can't give up just because of the risks of chemotherapy. Treatment, right?

Your current condition is not serious, and you may be able to recover with just surgery. "

Can surgery be cured?
Lu Qinian sneered at this: "Yongzhen, it's not that I'm harsh in speaking. Nowadays, once a person suffering from cancer goes to the hospital, how can he only undergo surgery?

Once the tumor is removed, it doesn’t matter whether it spreads or not. Chemotherapy will be arranged for you anyway. I am older now and can survive the surgery, but even if I have never experienced the feeling of chemotherapy, I can still hear it. Several of my old friends have mentioned before that life is worse than death, and long-term chemotherapy is accelerating death.

Of course, we are all going to die. Why do I have to get stabbed like that?Why go to chemotherapy and cause yourself pain?

At most, if I pay more attention to it, I might be able to live for a few more years, but if I go to the hospital, the crew may be gone in a year and a half, and I will lose both my life and property. "

The old man is too stubborn.

Lin Yongzhen sighed in his heart.

When he was about to speak, Lin Fanling on the side saw that the old man was about to give up without even treating him, and quickly persuaded him: "Dad, you can't just give up treatment just because of other people's conditions!
Yongzhen also said just now that your condition is not serious. If you really want to actively treat it, the possibility of recovery is very high. But if you don't treat it, isn't it just allowing the cancer cells to develop?
You really have to listen to us on this matter. Listen to Yongzhen. He is a doctor from the Second Provincial Hospital. Is it possible that he will harm you? "

"I know you won't harm me, but I don't want surgery and chemotherapy." Lu Qinian shook his head and still insisted on his plan.

My sister-in-law Lu Ran also persuaded me: "Dad, just listen to my sister-in-law."

Lin Yongzhen said: "Old man, what I learn is from my heart. You may not think what I say is credible. Just a few days ago, I made friends with a deputy chief physician in the gastroenterology department of our hospital. He is a good friend of our teacher. I Send him your situation and let him tell you."

With that said, Lin Yongzhen took out his mobile phone and asked for the inspection report from Lu Ran, then quickly sent it to him.

The other party may not be too busy at this time, so he replied to the voice message not long after.

"He's back."

Lin Yongzhen directly turned on the voiceover.

"I understand that your old man is worried about this. In this way, I will first spread some knowledge to him, and maybe he will know how to make a decision.

Generally speaking, because cells are constantly dividing, various tumors will occur in the small intestine. The histological classification of small intestinal malignant tumors mainly includes neuroendocrine tumors, adenocarcinoma, malignant lymphoma, and sarcoma (i.e., GIST, leiomyosarcoma)
In terms of frequency, neuroendocrine tumors are the most common, followed by adenocarcinoma.

Small intestinal adenocarcinoma is defined as one of the primary adenocarcinomas of the duodenum, jejunum, or ileum, except for Fauter's papillary carcinoma.

Adenocarcinoma of the small intestine accounts for less than 0.5% of all malignant tumors and less than 5% of all malignant tumors of the digestive tract. It is an extremely rare tumor.

Small intestinal adenocarcinoma frequently occurs in the first half of the small intestine, with approximately 45% occurring in the duodenum, 35% in the jejunum, and 20% in the ileum.

Early cancers are mostly asymptomatic.When there is a lesion on the anal side deep in the duodenum, it is impossible to observe it through an endoscope as usual, so most patients suffer from a positive occult blood test and worsening of anemia, abdominal pain and intestinal obstruction caused by intestinal stenosis. Waiting for symptoms as an opportunity, he was discovered in a highly deteriorated state.When duodenal lesions progress, in addition to the above symptoms, bile outlets may be blocked, causing jaundice.

The old man's condition was discovered relatively early. Many patients are basically in the advanced stage when they go to the hospital for examination when symptoms appear. We generally recommend not treating such patients, especially elderly patients. Without treatment, it will Much better than therapy.

But the old man was surprised. With active treatment, the possibility of cure is still relatively high.

You tell the old man, if you need treatment, I will tell Director Xue and arrange a time to diagnose the old man. "

When the voice came to this point, Lin Yongzhen looked at Lu Qinian: "You have heard it, right? I am the deputy director of the Department of Internal Medicine, and can be regarded as Director Xue's first deputy. As long as there is an operation, this person will definitely be the one, and many times They were all performed by this deputy director, so what he said is more convincing than what I said, right?"

Lu Qinian shook his head slightly. It wasn't that he didn't believe Lin Yongzhen, nor that he thought what the other party said was false.

It’s just that there are too many examples around me, and after experiencing them, people become numb.

Nowadays, when many people hear about cancer, few of them get angry.

Lu Qinian is also a human being. When he learned from Lu Ran that he had cancer, he almost lost all energy and energy. Fortunately, he had seen a lot, and several old friends who had passed away reminded him After all, if you really get cancer one day, you won't want to go to chemotherapy. That thing is too hurtful.

It's nothing if it can be cured, and it will pass if it is tolerated.

But the key point is that chemotherapy does not have much effect on cancer. Cancer cells should spread anyway. Even because of chemotherapy, people's own resistance is horribly low, giving cancer cells the opportunity to invade other parts of the human body.

Many times, a cancer that is not life-threatening metastasizes to the liver or even the whole body after treatment. People who could have lived five or six years longer without treatment may die in a few months.

It doesn’t matter if the person is gone, he still leaves in torment and pain, with no dignity at all.

Although Lu Qinian was afraid of death, he did not want to leave this world without dignity one day.

Therefore, after I found out that I had cancer, I had already made up my mind. I couldn’t do surgery and chemotherapy, but I had to pay more attention to it. The most I could do was ask around to see if there was a more powerful Chinese medicine doctor. I would ask a Chinese medicine doctor for some treatment. A few more years to live is a few more years.

Anyway, if he was asked to lie on the operating table, he would not do it for 1000 million yuan.

Just as Lu Qinian was thinking, the voice over there rang again:

"I've said it all, let me talk to the old man about treatment. It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Although Xiao Lin didn't study gastroenterology, he knows something about these. If you really don't understand, just ask me or search online directly. Can be found.

Regarding stages I to III, "resection of the lesion" is the main treatment.

In stage I, if it is judged that the tumor does not go deep, "endoscopic resection" will be performed. For those that are not suitable for endoscopic resection even in stage I, and in stages II to III, including the lymph nodes around the tumor, all A "surgical excision" is required.

For small intestinal adenocarcinoma, the effectiveness of postoperative treatment for the purpose of radical surgery, that is, no obvious tumor remains and can be removed during surgery, to prevent recurrence has not yet been established. Therefore, additional treatment is generally not performed after surgery. It is prudent to carry out regular inspections.

In other words, generally only surgical resection is required, and chemotherapy is not required. However, frequent examinations are required to prevent the spread of cancer cells.

Furthermore, in the case of stage IV and recurrence after surgery, the whole body is treated with chemotherapy, considering that the tumor spreads throughout the body.

Regarding chemotherapy for small intestinal adenocarcinoma, multiple reports in the past have shown that "fluorinated pyrimidine + oxaliplatin therapy" (CAPOX therapy or FOLFOX therapy), one of the treatments for colorectal cancer, has good therapeutic effects.

And, besides, the old man's situation is only in the early stage, and there is no need for subsequent combined treatment plans. This makes the old man feel at ease. "

"Dad, you heard it too, everyone in the profession said so." After the conversation ended, Lu Ran immediately started to persuade.

"You have to take me to the hospital and put me on the operating table to be treated by them, right?"

Lu Qinian was a little angry, blew his beard and glared: "I also know that early active treatment is effective, but as far as I know, most people will have spread after treatment. By then, it will still be unreasonable chemotherapy, chemotherapy.

Death has already ranked first in the world, and chemotherapy continues.

I don’t believe it. Can a treatment method that everyone is disgusted with and afraid of be a good method?If chemotherapy can really cure cancer, won’t the cancer be conquered?

As you know, Mr. Li, for advanced gastric cancer, he underwent several chemotherapy treatments. Four years later, his hands and feet are still numb, the veins on his body are still bulging, the nerve endings are necrotic, and varicose veins are bulging.

Lao Li sent me a WeChat message some time ago and said it was terrible. I didn’t know how much poison was put into it at that time.

Fortunately, he decisively left the hospital after the operation. He returned home and used other methods. He slowly replenished and adjusted carefully, and his body slowly recovered.If he had continued treatment in the hospital, he would have died long ago.

Any treatment that does not focus on restoring the original power of the patient's body and improving the patient's immunity is a blind treatment.

Let’s look at the others, who have been undergoing chemotherapy. How many of them have survived for more than three years?Let’s look at your Grandpa Li. He has only had so many thoughts since he was diagnosed. It has been five years since he was diagnosed. He is still in very good health. If he had been undergoing chemotherapy in the hospital, he might have died a few years ago.

You don’t need to persuade me, I can’t cure this disease. "

Lu Qinian waved his hand and sat directly on the sofa, his face gloomy.

Several people immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Lu Xuan, on the other hand, was happy when he heard what the old man said. The old man regarded chemotherapy as a tiger, which was a good thing for him!

He was previously worried that the old man would still resolutely choose Western medicine. He had already thought of countless ways to persuade the old man in his mind, and he had even thought about how to deal with his parents.

But now it seems that there is no need to think about it at all!

The old man doesn’t use Western medicine, so he is always willing to take Chinese medicine.
