How long can I last in this situation with advanced gastric cancer

Patients with advanced gastric cancer can generally live from a few months to a few years. The specific time needs to be comprehensively judged based on the severity of the patient's condition, treatment effects, and physical fitness.

1. Severity of the disease: If the tumor cells have metastasized to distant sites and have caused compression to surrounding tissues, it means that the disease is relatively serious. In this case, the survival time will be relatively shortened, perhaps around 3 months. However, if you actively cooperate with the doctor to control the development of the disease through radiotherapy or chemotherapy, the survival period can be extended to a certain extent, possibly up to 5 years or even longer;

2. Treatment effect: If you can cooperate with the doctor in time to improve the condition by surgically removing the lesions, and take medications for anti-inflammatory and analgesic purposes as prescribed by the doctor, such as amoxicillin capsules and ibuprofen sustained-release tablets, the prognosis is usually good and life expectancy can be appropriately extended, but the specific survival time cannot be determined;

3. Physical fitness: Since everyone's physical fitness is different, their resistance to diseases will also be different. If the body's immunity is strong, it can also help improve the quality of life, thereby extending the life span by about 6-8 months. If the body's physical fitness is poor and the resistance is weak, the condition may be further aggravated, the symptoms may be significantly worsened, and other complications may occur, such as anemia or hypoproteinemia, which may increase the risk of life and the survival time is relatively short, about 3-4 months.

It is recommended that such people should maintain a good attitude and mood, avoid being too excited or nervous, and pay attention to a healthy and reasonable diet, try to eat light and easily digestible food, and achieve a balanced and comprehensive nutrition, which is conducive to replenishing the various nutrients needed by the body and enhancing its own immune function. In addition, it is necessary to go to the hospital for regular check-ups and observe your condition at any time.
