Question 1

help please? what is the fastest killing cancer disease?

Accepted Answer

AML: All cancers develop over time and are asymptomatic, but especially in the old days, it was common for acute myelogenous leukemia to declare itself symptomatically and the patient die within a few days, from hemorrhage or bacterial infection.

Question 2

what are the most killing types of cancer?when can we expect a cure?i think it kills to mutch...just in my family there were three cases!

Accepted Answer

A complex question: Cancer is class of illnesses, not just one. Lethality of cancers varies- some are relatively rare but very deadly to those who get them (e.g. Esophageal), some are very survivable but so common that a lot of people still die of them (e.g. Breast, prostate). Colon, lung, breast, and prostate kill the most people. Therapies and screening are improving, but there is unlikely ever to be a single cure.

Question 3

are there any claims of home remedies for killing cancer cells?

Accepted Answer

Well, yes...: ..Plenty of claims. No proven results. I'm sure there are some naturopaths and homeopaths who would argue this point, but i would suggest you manage your cancer with a reputable oncologist. No one would argue that good balanced nutrition, adequate rest, and a healthy lifestyle will help a patient fight his/her disease, to some degree.  Good luck.

Question 4

in what ways are they able to target cancer cells for killing but not blocking?

Accepted Answer

Complex question!: I would say it is about the same thing. The net result is cell death because cells are either actively growing or dying. They do not stay in a "blocked" state for too long. I think what you are saying is simply a matter of semantics..

Question 5

could coronavirus be targeted to cancer cells and help killing them?

Accepted Answer

Great question!: That’s a very creative question and yes, viruses are being used to target certain types of cancer cells for treatment. It’s complicated, and 
coronaviruses probably aren’t the best type of virus to use for this.... but let’s see what the future holds! First step: vaccine for SARS CoV2!

Question 6

should i be worried about my blood type killing me? i read that my blood type doesnt live as long and has a higher risk of cancers so now im scared?

Accepted Answer

: Quit worrying. Your blood type has nothing to do with your longevity.
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. 
Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guid

Question 7

is a platelet level of 446 anything to worry about? ive read that cancers cause it and even a rare et cancer.. i have always had a platelet count of around 420. asked doc with no response yet. my anxiety is killing me. other blood counts was normal?

Accepted Answer

: Assume that all blood tests have a variation in resluts of at least ±10%. So 10% of 420 is 42. 420+42 is 462.  So within error rage expected. I would discuss with the lab and get it repeated. And ask why it was done in the first place.

Question 8

i'm 2 weeks late and the sides of my breasts are killing me. i don't think i'm pregnant tho. breast cancer runs in my family, so i'm a little worried.

Accepted Answer

Very rare.: Breast cancer at your age is very rare unless you have a hereditary predisposition (more than 1 immediate family member with breast / ovarian CA , a known BRCA mutation or breast cancer at a very young age). Breast cancer presenting as pain in both breasts would be distinctly unusual. If you have been having unprotected sex I would be more inclined to consider pregnancy.

Question 9

hey! my anxiety is killing me because i think that i might have some sort of cancer. when i push down on my throat, it makes a strange and loud, muddy and high pitched sound, and when i push down too hard, i get forced to cough. i am 16 years old?

Accepted Answer

: Go to your doc and get checked out. When they don't find a problem ask for help finding a life coach/therapist that will teach you skills that help you manage anxiety &amp; find out why you have it. Health issues are a common coverup for the real issues you cannot understand or explain.
