Is it a death sentence if breast cancer metastasizes to the bones?

Breast cancer can be said to be the most common malignant tumor in women. Its incidence rate is very high. If it is discovered in the early stage, it can be treated by mastectomy. As long as the cancer cells do not metastasize in the later stage, women’s lives will not be affected. However, if it is discovered in the middle or late stage, the possibility of cure is very low. In addition, the metastasis rate of cancer cells in the middle and late stages is very fast. So, does breast cancer with bone metastasis only allow one to wait for death?

Symptoms before death from breast cancer bone metastasis?

The symptoms of breast cancer patients at the last moment of death are not a single phenomenon, but are determined by the complete failure of all systems of the human body. A week before the death of a breast cancer patient in the advanced stage, the chest rises and falls greatly when breathing, especially at night, and the sound of phlegm in the throat is very heavy.

A few minutes before death, he fell into a coma, his breathing became irregular and very weak, and in the end he would take big gulps of air without exhaling, lie on his side, and a lot of phlegm and liquid flowed out of his mouth. When breast cancer reaches the middle and late stages, the patient's pain will intensify, and the cancer cells will destroy the patient's bone tissue in the body.

Breast cancer patients often experience metastasis symptoms in different locations before they die. Patients with brain metastases will experience dizziness, vomiting, fainting, confusion, etc.; those with lung metastases will experience coughing, coughing up blood, difficulty breathing, chest pain, etc.; if there is bone metastasis, the patient will suffer pathological fractures, bone pain, etc.
