At present, the whole country is in the most difficult and strenuous stage of prevention and control of the new round of new crown epidemic, many public places have taken the measure of restricting or even shutting down the flow, and the community and hospitals have also implemented the personnel control, which has caused inconvenience to the patients who suffer from gastric cancer who are eager to consult the doctor, and many patients and their family members are worried that their condition will be delayed because they cannot consult the doctor in time. When suffering from malignant tumors, it is natural to be anxious to consult a doctor, but most of the treatments for stomach cancer are recommended to be carried out for a limited period of time rather than immediately, so there is no need to be overly anxious. Here are some brief explanations on the arrangement of consultation time for patients with stomach cancer, which are hoped to be of help. The consultation time for gastric cancer patients can be different according to the stage of the disease and treatment measures: Early stage gastric cancer: the progress is relatively slow, usually surgery within 6 months will not significantly affect the prognosis of survival. Locally advanced gastric cancer: usually referred to as intermediate gastric cancer, a waiting period of 1-3 months for surgery can be allowed; for patients with preoperative chemotherapy, the interval between chemotherapy and surgery should preferably not be more than 5-6 weeks; for patients with adjuvant chemotherapy after radical surgery, chemotherapy is usually administered 3-4 weeks after surgery, and can be delayed up to 6-8 weeks after surgery. Advanced gastric cancer: it is usually acceptable to delay chemotherapy for 2 weeks from the usual time. Gastric cancer combined with bleeding and/or obstruction: emergency room visits are recommended, and delayed disposition is not recommended. In conclusion, the treatment of gastric cancer is limited and earlier the better during routine periods, but limited delay can be considered during special periods! If in doubt, consult a specialist for help.
