What are the symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma on the day before death

summary

My grandfather died of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In the late stage, his symptoms are basically difficult to control, and he often has high fever and coma. At this time, he needs to be psychologically prepared. Let's take a look at the symptoms of NPC the day before death.

What are the symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma on the day before death

Symptom 1: CO infection: due to low immunity, it is easy to have infectious complications. The original non pathogenic bacteria, viruses and fungi in the body will also take advantage of the fire to attack and aggravate the disease. This infection is often difficult to control, causing high fever, coma and other deaths.

Symptom 2: hemorrhage: hemorrhage in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be caused by suppression of bone marrow hematopoiesis and thrombocytopenia, or by direct destruction of blood vessels by cancer cells, or by rupture of blood vessels due to severe infection. If the amount of bleeding is too large, it may lead to death.

Symptom 3: Cachexia caused by nutrition exhaustion: cancer cells grow rapidly, consuming a lot of nutrients; patients are seriously ill, reducing the intake of nutrients. After a long time, there will be anemia, edema, fatigue, and even extreme hunger malnutrition, that is, "cachexia" state, and eventually die of systemic failure.

matters needing attention

The development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the late stage has basically gone back to the sky, but we can let patients eat more anti-tumor food, such as kelp, laver, Gracilaria lemaneiformis, jellyfish, etc., to maximize the life of patients.
