Do you think is due to their lifestyle? eg. too much stress.. too much processed food in their diet.. or too much sugar?

How did her pregnancy give her cancer tho?

Did I catch you right?

Are you saying your wife gotten cancer from pregnancy?

Sorry to hear this.

How to detect the cyst?

would massage breast after birth to prevent blocked milk duct, help prevent any blockage or inflammation?

How old was she then?

I think its true among chinese its more prevalent

Cancer prevalence by race in Malaysia varies significantly across ethnic groups, reflecting differences in genetics, lifestyle factors, and possibly access to healthcare. Based on available data, here’s an overview of cancer prevalence by race in Malaysia as of the most recent reports:

- **Chinese**: The Chinese population in Malaysia tends to have the highest cancer incidence rates among the major ethnic groups. For instance, the age-standardized rate (ASR) for cancer among Chinese men is approximately 106 per 100,000, and for Chinese women, it is about 117 per 100,000, according to the Malaysia National Cancer Registry Report (MNCRR) 2012-2016. Breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer are notably prevalent, with Chinese women showing a higher incidence of breast cancer (41 cases per 100,000) compared to other groups.

- **Malays**: Malays generally have lower cancer incidence rates compared to the Chinese but have seen an increasing trend over time. The ASR for Malay men was reported at 70.7 per 100,000 and for Malay women at 81.9 per 100,000 in earlier reports, with a noticeable rise by the 2012-2016 period. Common cancers among Malays include breast cancer (32 cases per 100,000 women), colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. The increase in incidence may be linked to changing lifestyles and urbanization.

- **Indians**: The Indian population in Malaysia shows a moderate cancer incidence rate, lower than the Chinese but higher than Malays in some contexts. The ASR has historically been higher than Malays but showed a decrease by the 2012-2016 period. For Indian women, breast cancer incidence is around 38 cases per 100,000. Indians also have a unique pattern with lower gastric cancer rates despite a high prevalence of *H. pylori* infection, a phenomenon referred to as the "Indian enigma."

Key observations:
- Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women across all ethnic groups, with the highest rates among Chinese, followed by Indians, and then Malays.
- Colorectal cancer is a leading cancer among men, particularly high among the Chinese, followed by lung and prostate cancers.
- The Chinese population consistently shows the highest overall cancer burden, possibly due to dietary habits, genetic predispositions, or higher rates of screening and diagnosis.
- Malays have historically had lower rates, but these are rising, potentially reflecting shifts in diet, reduced physical activity, and increased obesity.
- Indians exhibit specific patterns, such as higher metabolic syndrome-related risks, which may influence cancer prevalence differently.

These insights are drawn from the Malaysia National Cancer Registry Report 2012-2016 and other studies, with the situation likely evolving by 2025 due to ongoing demographic and lifestyle changes. For the most current and detailed breakdown, data beyond 2021 (e.g., the MNCRR 2017-2021) would be ideal, but based on trends, the Chinese remain the most affected, followed by Indians and Malays. If you need more specific cancer type breakdowns or updated figures, let me know, and I can refine the response further!

Sorry and scary to hear this.

Recently did full body and comprehensive blood test, was so worried 3 days waiting for results but luckily only slightly high cholesterol and blood sugar, cancer marker 5 test all negative. Was a huge relief.

Also detected no Hepatitis A protection but B got, took jab immediately.

I always believe live life now and not wait till you retire, it might never come!

I requested a biopsy at least, dr (endocrine specialist/ surgeon) said not necessary yet. Even I do now it's not conclusive.

Am likely to seek 2nd opinion on this.

This is not scientific but I think it is due to soy sauce. Chinese love soy sauce and put it on all their food. Do you how unhygienically these are made? Too much of anything can be a problem.
Among my friends and colleagues there is a very high proportion of Chinese who get cancer compared to other races.

My aunt just passed away this morning. 2nd funeral I attended this year, and it's just March.

Haih. I dont know what to say.

Today one is deteriorating kidney function. Origin cause i forgot, but she refused to get treatment. Then her family still on her with oxygen for 33 days in ICU. Doesn't wanna let go, while got bleeding from nose, eye, ear already.

Wife's cancer was only detected during her pregnancy ?
Stay strong and may she recover well.

Not true. Metastatic cancer can be cured with immunotherapy. They did it with some mets tumour to the brain. But there is a catch. Not everyone responded to it. For non responder they found the cause. Usually lacking the bacteria akkermansia in the gut. You can search up what I just said. That's why I have been telling you food is very important. Eating pomegranate is one of the way to grow akkermansia.

Sorry to hear this man.. meaning it's spread to other parts of the body? How are you guys coping with it?

Claimable under medical card right ? If kenot then admit 1/2 day.

Ownself pay susah lah 6k p.m.

Can share which are the expensive medicine ?

My bro in law, 31 years old got diagnosed with rare neuro-endocrine carcinoma, small cell recently.
He was fine during CNY and the next week after stage developed some bulging at his throat. Things been moving very fast since then.

The cancer has also spread to his spinal bone. It is at stage 4. Currently just completed 2nd cycle of chemo + immunotherapy.

It feels so devastating that this is happened to my family member.

Tis at public or private hospital?
