Colorectal cancer is also caused by genetic factors, but it can also be caused by bad lifestyles of modern people, such as an unhealthy diet, obesity, and lack of physical activity.
It is also a cancer that you should always be aware of, especially if you are over 50.
Another problem with colorectal cancer is that there are no symptoms until the end of the stage, so it is often discovered only at the end of the stage.
Even according to the data of the National Statistical Office in 2021, the mortality rate of colon cancer is 17.5 per 100,000 population, and it is also a cancer that ranks third in the risk of death following lung cancer and liver cancer.
It belongs to the side with few early symptoms, so the best way is to check your condition by receiving regular health checkups.
However, just because you have been diagnosed with late-stage colorectal cancer doesn’t mean you should be in despair. No matter how high the risk of death is for cancer, one’s attitude and will are the key to treatment as important as the success of surgery.
◆Three surgeries, what is the secret to overcoming terminal cancer?
On the 10th, the Dong-A Ilbo reported the case of Mr. Noh Seung-deok, who was diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer, but successfully recovered following 7 years by overcoming 3 surgeries and chemotherapy for a long time. .
Professors at Korea University Guro Hospital, who worked hard on his treatment, emphasized that it was Mr. Roh’s positive mind and attitude that enabled him to overcome the difficult treatment process and obtain the result of a full recovery.
When most patients are diagnosed with terminal cancer, they often live in despair, but Mr. Roh was so cheerful and full of energy that it was hard to believe that he was a cancer patient.
In fact, Mr. Roh revealed that he continued to have the will to live even during the treatment process, and while receiving the last chemotherapy treatment, he started learning computers and found new interests and learning. He even said that his skills have improved to the point where he now gives computer lectures to seniors over the age of 65.
Eating a lot of food throughout the fight once morest illness is also the secret to his health.
I tried not to lose my appetite by eating as much as I might, even buying food from outside the hospital, and taking digestive medicine when I mightn’t digest it.
Cancer patients who are gangsters heal faster
Dr. Eui-shin Kim, who was recognized as a world-class cancer specialist while serving as a professor at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in the United States, emphasized the importance of patient attitudes in cancer treatment.
He noted, for example, that so-called ‘gangsters’ had far better treatment outcomes.
According to Dr. Kim’s experience, gangster patients who received cancer treatment at the hospital, instead of looking hopeless, asked regarding a good golf course or bar near the hospital, and thought regarding eating well and having fun, had a much faster treatment process.
It is a fragmentary example that gangster cancer patients have better treatment outcomes. However, it is the common position of most experts that it is difficult to achieve the full effect of treatment if you only have a lot of negative thoughts following a cancer diagnosis and lose your will or pleasure in life.
