Patient: Description of the disease (onset time, main symptoms, hospital visited, etc.): In April 2011, he started to have black stools and loss of appetite, and in September and October, he started to vomit and become dizzy, and the xx hospital said that he had advanced gastric cancer and could not undergo surgery and chemotherapy, and suggested that we should give him more nutrition and just take regular medication. I would like to consult Dr. Chen, because Western medicine is no longer treatable, can I choose Chinese medicine to maintain it? Is there still a possibility of cure? At present, the patient’s mental and physical state seems to be as good as before. Doctor: Hello, patients and families! After reading the medical history and the information provided by you, I think the information is not comprehensive enough: 1. There is not enough evidence to diagnose gastric cancer based on CT film alone, and we need gastroscopy and pathological conclusion (also called “gold standard”) to confirm whether it is gastric cancer. These data are not available, including the diagnostic report of CT. If there is no obvious active bleeding, gastroscopy is recommended before making a definite decision. Otherwise, stop bleeding treatment first. 2. To take a step back, if it is clear that it is gastric cancer and cannot or is not suitable for surgery, and the patient is still in good health and the bleeding is related to tumor, chemotherapy should be considered, together with traditional Chinese medicine treatment, which is the best policy. Because tumor control is the real effective means to stop bleeding (this refers to the bleeding caused by tumor). Doctors in other hospitals do not give chemotherapy because there is no gastroscopy, no pathological diagnosis to confirm, blind chemotherapy is not good for patients, but also for your responsibility, so it is better to return to the above topic, it is best to consider the examination first clear, and then the next step, okay? 3, as a Chinese medicine practitioner, of course, welcome to receive Chinese medicine treatment, but do not want you to blindly perform Chinese medicine treatment and delay the diagnosis of the disease, miss the best treatment opportunities and methods, hope to think twice before acting, but also please seize the time to make the most favorable decision as soon as possible.
