<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" >, from advanced cancer to tumor disappearance, what did Zhang Mi experience? </h1>
Zhang Mi's initial awareness of physical discomfort was at the end of August 2018, when she suddenly felt that her mouth could not be opened, and gradually evolved into difficulty swallowing, and she could only eat some liquid foods.
At that time, she was in Canada, and she felt that this symptom must not be normal, and she went to see no less than 10 doctors in multiple hospitals, and the conclusion given by the doctors was very consistent, which was a temporomandibular joint disorder caused by stress, emotions and other factors, which was not a big problem. After nearly 8 months of treatment in Canada, Zhang Mi's condition was not alleviated, but became more serious. But the doctor's conclusion is still the same as before, which makes her realize that she may have been misdiagnosed...
She then immediately booked a ticket back to her home country and went to a hospital in the country for treatment. After palping Zhang Mi's neck, the experienced doctor concluded that it was a tumor. Later, CT, pathological biopsy and other examinations were performed, and the results of the examination suggested that her tonsil cancer had reached an advanced stage.
The doctor's treatment advice was to cut open the right side of the face to cut off the cancerous tongue, but because Zhang Mi's condition was more serious, he did not have the conditions for surgery. Therefore, it is necessary to undergo radiotherapy and chemotherapy to narrow the lesion first, and then see whether to decide whether to operate or not to recover from the disease.
After starting radiotherapy and chemotherapy, Zhang Mi's body had serious side effects, her nails turned black, her hair fell out, and even the most common thing like drinking water became a burden. She described herself as "more terrifying than a ghost, especially frightening."
Fortunately, after the treatment, Zhang Mi's physical condition improved day by day, from the mouth could not be opened to open wider and wider, the side effects gradually disappeared, and finally when the MRI and laryngoscopy were reviewed, it was shown that the tumor had disappeared.
In an interview after recovering, Zhang Mi said that cancer is not as terrible as imagined, and sometimes people only need to persist for a while, and they may really create miracles!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="26" > the tumor disappeared in 300 days, why did Zhang Mi succeed in fighting cancer?
1, a positive attitude, to overcome the disease</h1>
"If you are bold, you will live, and if you are timid, you will die, and it is easier to die than to live!" After suffering from cancer, Zhang Mi clearly realized that 70% of cancer patients are scared to death, and she has a deeper understanding of living to die, and she wants to create miracles!
Yuan Fenglan, a professor in the Department of Cancer Prevention at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, believes that cancer treatment has three points of treatment and seven points of mentality. The better the mindset of the patient, the better the treatment and prognosis. Whether you are an early or advanced cancer patient, mindset is important. Zhang Mi's success in fighting cancer is inseparable from her positive attitude.
2. Believe in doctors and standardize treatment
"When I was not sick before, I did not pay special attention to the hospital, medical staff and doctor-patient relationship, and the close contact with medical staff after I fell ill made me have a new understanding and deep feeling for them, and the weight of the four words 'angel in white' in my heart was even heavier." During my hospitalization, I gave myself full attention to the doctor, and the cooperation between doctors and patients was especially important. Zhang Mi felt very deeply about this, and she especially thanked the doctor who treated her.
The rehabilitation of patients requires the joint efforts of doctors and patients, and the standardized treatment of cancer is one of the fundamental factors to ensure the effectiveness of cancer treatment. Many cancer patients believe that once they have cancer, they are equal to death, and they refuse to accept treatment in the face of the disease, which will lose the best treatment time and accelerate the speed of death.
In addition, there are some patients who do not want to believe in the hospital, to choose to believe in some so-called "anti-cancer" remedies, and take medicine indiscriminately. Doing so will only speed up the progress of cancer development and have a huge impact on the patient's body.
3. Healthy diet, balanced nutrition
After being discharged from the hospital, Zhang Mi arranged a very detailed recipe for herself, with a variety of foods, eating more vegetables such as carrots, pumpkins, potatoes, etc., and the meat was mainly white meat such as fish and chicken, and the diet was light but not lacking in nutrition. In addition, I also restrict myself from drinking sugary drinks, but drinking a variety of flower teas.
Diet is also a treatment for cancer, and a healthy diet allows patients to supplement enough nutrients to enhance immune function. It can effectively improve the patient's tolerance for treatment and reduce the occurrence of side effects. Moreover, dietary therapy can also promote wound healing in patients and improve the quality of life of patients.
4, life lies in exercise, sports anti-cancer
The gym is the place that Zhang Mi is most familiar with, as a singer and model, she must maintain a good figure through exercise, after suffering from cancer, she is more firmly believed that exercise can fight cancer. When she was first discharged from the hospital, because she was lying all day, she found that the more she lay down, the more she lost strength, and it was not until she resumed exercise that her mental and physical state improved a lot.
The Cancer Survivors Exercise Guidelines recommend that cancer survivors should perform about 30 minutes of aerobic exercise and resistance training 3 times a week to promote good health if the condition allows. Cancer patients who are too quiet will make the body unable to exercise, which is not a good thing. Moderate exercise can effectively improve the patient's immunity and play a positive role in the recovery of the disease.
Advanced cancer ≠ death, for cancer we must maintain the right mentality, especially some special cancers, the cure rate is very high.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="27" > third, advanced cancer is not only waiting for death, these cancers have a chance to be cured</h1>
Pan Zhanhe, deputy chief physician of the Department of Oncology of Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Xiamen University, proposed that some cancers still have the opportunity for clinical cure in the advanced stage, such as malignant tumors of the hematolytic lymphatic system that are very sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, as well as malignant germ cell tumors, many children's malignant tumors, etc. There is still hope for cure in the late stage. Cancers with higher levels of malignancy, such as lung cancer and melanoma, also have the opportunity to survive long-term through targeted therapy.
Like Zhang Mi's tonsil cancer, the early stage only needs to carry out a single treatment to achieve good results, 5-year survival rate can reach more than 80%, while patients in the middle and advanced stages, need comprehensive treatment, after systematic treatment 5-year survival rate is also more than 50%.
The rapid development of modern medical technology, cancer and death can not only be equated, for some unfortunate people with cancer, it is necessary to carry out scientific treatment and maintain a good attitude. #Health Star Program ##谣零零计划 #
