Female | 41
The malignant tumor in the right breast is stage IV, with metastases in the brain, liver, and bones. This is considered a very severe situation. The upcoming seizure can be associated with a brain tumor, which would finally become the cause of the disorder. The patient also has some other concerns like hemoglobin c and increasing weight. Consequently, in advanced cases, oncologists guide patients to symptom control, relieve pain, and enhance life quality.

My mother is 52 Years old house wife and she's survive in chest Cancer past 3 years and didn't well Dr do treatment but feeling getting bad
Female | 52
Cancer is tough, but there's hope. Please let the doctor know if she feels worse even after treatment. Some symptoms such as coughing, pain, or feeling weak are of multiple possibilities. The doctor possibly has to ascertain if the cancer has recurred or if there is another problem. Waiting is not a good choice especially when you tell them how your mother is doing.

Galeme cancer hai usaka aurvedic upchar ho sakta hai kya
Male | 65
Ayurvedic medicine has been used to treat various conditions but it may not be suitable for all health issues. If someone is diagnosed with throat cancer.. conventional cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy have been proven effective in many cases. So consult an oncologist for proper cancer treatment and evaluation.

I would suggest that you consult medical expert in the field of breast health or oncology for further diagnostics. There may be a swollen lymph node, an infection or benign growth in your left armpit and these all should not have malignancy. Don’t wait and visit your doctor immediately.
