Brain Cancer
I have chosen to do brain cancer for my research paper, the main reason for this is because my grandmother had passed a year ago from brain cancer. The brain is what controls the body. I wanted to know what happens step by step. This cancer if beaten can leave so many permanent damages. Brain cancers color is a grey ribbon. This year may is brain cancer awareness month you can show support and try raising money. An estimation of people who are affected by this cancer was about 69,720 in the year of 2013. out of that group 24,620 are immigrants and 45,100 are non-immigrants. This cancer can lead to spinal cancer.i had a family member pass from the cancer, but she did not start with brain cancer. She started with breast cancer.The good thing was she beat it, but no one had known that it had traveled to her brain. later she had a seizure and was on life support. she could only twitch and move one side of her body the doctors said this was because the one half of her brain is dead.Lots of families are affected by cancer in the brain you may even know on your self.Let me tell you some more about the cancer.
Some possible causes of this cancer can be large amounts of radiation to the brain, power lines, mobile phones, hair dye, smoking, and drinking large amounts of alcohol. That does not mean it can't be hereditary or just in your genes. What are some signs or symptoms of this cancer? weakness, difficulty walking, seagers, headaches, nausea and or vomiting, blurry vision. If you have this sines then maybe you should talk to your doctor. No that doesn't mean you have cancer it can be something else so dont panic.Some people can losses like mental capacity, memory loss speech loss and loss of personality. How can you be diagnosed with this cancer? One way to be diagnosed is throw a biopsy. Doctors also find out throw surgery, stereotactic biopsy, and imaging test.
There are different levels of cancer too, it tells you how bad it is and what the chances are of surviving it. Stage one is called jpa, it is a small growing cancer that can be easily cured with surgery. The second stage of cancer has a possibility of coming back after treatment. there are also a large number of dead cells in the brain. In the Third stage the tumor is large and dividing fast with huge growth. The fourth stage last stage of cancer and the most DEADLY. most of the brain cells are dead and the tumor is large and has started spreading throw out the body. After you have been diagnosed most people with brain cancer have 5 years to live, with treatment. People within the ages of 45 to 50 have the best rate of survival. What can you do for treatments. you can have surgery, radiation therapy, and chemother therapy are some of your options. radiation has effects like hair loss, tenderness, and etcetera. chemother therapy are more effects like pain, sore mouth and or throat, diarrhea, nausea and or vomiting, tingling or burning, memory loss, hair loss, loss of balance, headaches, vision problems and more. If you are a cancer survivor there's a chance it can come back. So you have to have check ups every once in awhile.
Yes, cancer research has been looking for cures. They are achieving new blood test to find cancer sooner. This will help doctors beat cancer in a individual person fazer, before the cancer spreads or advances to the next stage. Other tests scientists are working on are new medicines to kill cancer. What the medication dose, the medication reduces the size of the tumbler. It also slows down the process of development in the tumbler. When the tumbler is shrinked or slowed down it is easier remove or kill with radiation. So dont losses all hope when you or a family member is diagnosed with brain cancer. Remember that you have options with treatments, removal, and more. You can help with finding a cure even if you're a kid or if you're not a doctor. You can raise money for the cancer society in you one community school workplace or state. Maybe one day their will be a cure to thish cancers or al cancer in general.
