The symptoms of cancer are different, but there are three symptoms that appear in the morning hours and which you should not ignore
Cancer grows silently, but according to a study by Cancer Research UK, there are three symptoms of cancer that appear in the morning hours.
They are: fatigue, vomiting and headache, Telegrafi reports.
As noted in this study, "fatigue is very common in people who suffer from cancer and can often be the most severe symptom".
"Most people say it is the most devastating side effect of all the symptoms of this dangerous disease. And fatigue is related to cancer and can affect a person in multiple ways, both physically, emotionally, and mentally," Cancer Research UK said.
According to scientists, fatigue in the case of cancer is most often the result of cancer cells depleting the body's reserves of nutrients in order to develop and advance.
Studies show that fatigue may be more pronounced in blood cancer, because these diseases originate in the bone marrow. Bone marrow is a vital determinant of cancer severity because it is responsible for producing red blood cells, which carry oxygen to different parts of the body. However, although fatigue may be more pronounced in blood cancer, it is a common ailment in all types of tumors.
Nausea, as a symptom of cancer, is characteristic of brain tumors, liver tumors and gastrointestinal tumors. People with advanced cancer often feel very sick, and this condition, according to researchers, is caused by the cancer's treatment with chemotherapy or radiation, the growth, spread of the cancer, a blockage in the intestines, or where the tumor mainly developed.
However, researchers note that nausea can be a side effect of some other health complications and is rarely linked to cancer. Also, morning sickness is often interpreted as a clear indication that the disease is gaining momentum, especially in the case of breast cancer.
"Signs that breast cancer may have spread to the brain include nausea, particularly when the patient wakes up in the morning. This can also occur with certain symptoms of a brain tumour," Cancer Research UK said.
Headaches are one of the main symptoms of brain tumors, but there are many reasons for headaches. Headaches caused by a brain tumor can have some unique characteristics - for example, they can be severe and persistent. They can get worse over several days or can be "worse in the morning." /Telegraph/
