How do doctors determine what stage of cancer you have? - Hyunsoo Joshua No and Trudy Wu

[@omarrochet]

Scariest thing about cancer is that it’s your body’s own system gone awry, it’s not an external threat looking for you like a virus or a bacteria that you can just eliminate quickly.

[@lucywilfahrt6379]

It’s also uncannily common. One thing that doesn’t surprise me anymore from working in healthcare in how prevalent it is.

“That you can just eliminate quickly”?? You understand TB, Cholera, Bacterial Meningitis, Ebola. Anthrax and hundreds more diseases that are viruses or bacteria can’t be “ eliminated quickly “.

[@redblade8160]

@omarrochet. You're not educated to talk about such matters; viruses and bacteria also live and grow inside the body. By the way, don't feel good about your high thumbs-up rate; these fools are just as uneducated as you!

[@Tango_Mike]

On a side note, wording makes a HUGE difference. I battled with cancer for more than a decade, and not one of my doctors ever used the word cancer with me. Whenever we discussed, we would always use the more technical terms, even with treatment protocols, and this rationalization had a massive impact on how I dealt with it mentally. There's a lot of stigmatization around the word that makes everything a lot harder for the patients. Of course, there are cases that are terminal, but many aren't, and for those cases, people are often much stronger than they believe.

[@dnabate08]

I’d just like to say you’re very strong and I hope you are doing well now. You’re right. The way people view cancer is what makes it all the more threatening. This definitely needs to change as it affects the patient mentally on top of the already existing conditions

I work as an oncology nurse at a major hospital. This short video clip explained the stages of cancer very well. It's important to note that not all cancers are staged; for example, most leukemias are not staged.

My mother has been diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma this year. At first she told me it was stage 3, but it was only to protect me.

It doesn't make it hurt less, but it's more straightforward, I guess, easier to say for the person that suffers from the condition. And more practical for the doctors, of course.

Full disclosure, I'm not a doctor nor a healthcare professional. If her melanoma is unresectable but she remains overall decently healthy and strong, she should ask her doctor about lifileucel (Amtagvi).

Cancer staging determines the extent of cancer in the body. It's based on three main variables: 1. T (Tumor) - size of the primary tumor. 2. N (Nodes) - No. of affected lymph nodes. 3. M (Metastasis): Whether cancer has spread to other parts of the body. Each variable is assigned a number, which together give a detailed picture of the cancer's progression. This information is typically gathered through a biopsy and imaging tests. Staging helps plan treatment and predict outcomes; higher stages often mean more challenging treatment.

When I grew up, everyone talked about cancer stages like I was supposed to know what they meant. I understood that it was 1 to 4 with 4 being the end stage, but nothing beyond that. I wouldn't even have known if different cancers had different progressions. I only learned what it was when one of my teachers was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer, and I felt the need to look it up (she had a recovery while I had her class, but it came back a couple years later and ended up taking her life...). We had units on cancer in school, but staging and the progression details were left out. I think that should be taught, because approximately 40% of people will develop some form of cancer within their lifetime, yet overall cancer education seems to mostly fall on advocacy organizations.
