Patient's question:
My grandfather is currently suffering from mid-stage cardia cancer. Before, he had been feeling pain and constantly tired. Now, the pain is particularly severe. He wants to seek treatment, and upon examination, it was determined to be mid-stage. How should this disease be treated for someone of his age?Doctor's answer:
The treatment method for this disease is surgical operation, followed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy. However, if the patient's physical condition is poor or they are excessively weak and cannot tolerate surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy must be performed to help prolong the patient's life. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain a good mental state and ensure adequate nutritional supplementation in all aspects.
