How to Deal with the Final Stage of Lung Cancer?
Very often, the patient and the caregiver questions Why is that they have to go through this? However, it is important to understand that there are many patients who are suffering from it and their caregivers and family members are taking care of these patients. Joining a cancer support group should be considered. This will help you to know how the others are dealing with this dreadful disease. The final stage is usually a stage when all methods of treatment have been tried and none of the remedies seem to help. It is therefore important to treat the symptoms rather than trying to eliminate the tumor. Pain management should be on the priority list, as very often cancer can cause pain in the least expected areas.

You can consult your oncologist about this and he can help set up palliative care, so that you are able to spend quality time with your near and dear ones. Alternative
