癌症：关于癌症你有什么想说的

What are the early signs of cancer?Stephen Scheppele, former High Voltage Lineman at International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (1969-2009)Answered Jun 20I can tell you this, do NOT expect your doctor to figure it out. My wife died from lung cancer 4 years ago today, June 19, 2013. It all started in 2004 with her complaining of being tired and aching all over in. Her doctor told her she had fibromyalgia and prescribed a Rx and some pain meds. My wife complained to her doctor for two years that there was something else wrong and was given a parade of drugs for what turned out to be many misdiagnoses. My wife smoked about a pack of cigarettes a day and had since she was 15. Her doctor was well aware of this and the history of cancer in her family, yet a simple chest x-ray was never ordered. Instead, after two years, she sent her to several "specialists". The heart doctor took a chest x-ray and spotted the cancer right away - it was Stage 4 already. He sent us to a lung "specialist" and the fight was on. ALL SMOKERS should have an annual chest x-ray!!! Let me change that - ALL SMOKERS should QUIT SMOKING!!! If you had to watch someone die of lung cancer, struggling for breath until you lose consciousness and finally panting for hours until your heart explodes under the strain, you never smoke again.ALWAYS listen to what your body is telling you and don't be afraid to question your doctors "opinion/diagnosis". After all, they are all just "practicing" medicine and many times they get it wrong. They're over worked with too many patients and have been trained to believe in the power of drugs. Take as few drugs as possible. The list of side effects on a simple aspirin alone is staggering! If you're taking 2, 3, 4, or even more drugs, there is NO WAY anyone can tell you what they combine into inside the human body AND everyone's body is different!I'm not saying to not consult a doctor, just be an informed patient and do some research yourself. After all, if you're reading this you probably have access to more information than any generation before us. Not all information is useful and some is outright lies, but be a participant in your life and your health!
