Kusho ukuthini ukuthi isifo 'selapheke'? Ake siqonde amaqiniso ngeNirogi Lanka!

Kwezokwelapha, amagama athile angadida kakhulu uma engachazwanga kahle—futhi eliyinhloko igama elithi ‘ukwelapha.’ Kalula nje, ‘ukuphulukiswa’ kusho ukuthi ukugula sekuphelile unomphela futhi ngeke kuphinde kubuye. Kodwa-ke, kwabaningi, ‘ukwelapha’ kumelela okuthile okujulile: ukuthula kwengqondo okuvela ekungagulini, ekungasaboshelwa ohlelweni lokwelapha oluqinile, kanye nokuyeka ukubhekwa njalo kwezokwelapha. Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu ezimweni ezifana ne-Alzheimer's, i-Parkinson's, isifo senhliziyo esithuthukile, noma umdlavuza. Ithemba lokwelashwa livame ukuba yisifiso sokuphila ngaphandle kwethunzi lokufa noma umthwalo wokuphila olawulwa ukuxilongwa okungenakulawulwa.

Yilapho 'ukwelapha' kuba yinkimbinkimbi khona. Akuyona 'into ewumlingo' eyodwa eqinisekisa impilo ephelele nokuthula okusheshayo. Isibonelo, abantu abaningi abaphila nezimo ezingelapheki—kufaka phakathi izinhlobo ezithile zomdlavuza—baphila impilo egcwele, engenazimpawu. Ukuqonda ukuthi 'ukwelapha' kusho ukuthini ngempela, nokuthi akukusho ukuthini, kungakusiza ukuhlela ikusasa lakho uma ubhekene nesimo esingase singelapheki.

Uyini umehluko phakathi "kokwelapha" kanye "nokwelashwa"?

Ukwelashwa kubhekisela emithini, izinqubo, kanye nokwelashwa okusetshenziselwa ukuthuthukisa impilo yakho kanye nenhlalakahle yakho. Ukwelashwa kumane nje kuwumphumela owodwa ongaba khona wokwelashwa oholela kulokhu kuthuthukiswa. Eminye imiphumela yokwelashwa ingagcina impilo yakho ngempumelelo futhi ikuvumele ukuthi uphile impilo oyifunayo.

Nazi imiphumela eminingana yokwelashwa engaba khona:

• Ukwelashwa Okuphelele: Ukugula noma isimo sakho siqedwe ngokuphelele futhi ngeke sibuye. Isibonelo, ama-antibiotic asetshenziselwa ukwelapha izifo ezibangelwa amagciwane aqeda amagciwane athile abangela ukugula kwakho kwamanje. Nakuba le mithi ingenakukuvimbela ekuvezweni amagciwane amasha esikhathini esizayo, ixazulula ngempumelelo ukutheleleka okuqondile obhekene nakho njengamanje.
• Ukuvimbela Izifo : Ukuzivikela esimweni ngaphambi kokuba sivele. Isibonelo, ukuthola ( umuthi wokugomela i-HPV) kungakuvikela ezinhlotsheni ezithile ze-( Human Papillomavirus – HPV) eziholela kumdlavuza, okuhlanganisa umdlavuza wendunu, wesibeletho , wepenis, nomphimbo.
• Ukuphathwa Kwezifo: Ukunciphisa ubunzima besimo ngenkathi uphila naso ukuze uthuthukise ikhwalithi yokuphila kwakho kwansuku zonke. Uma unesifo sikashukela sohlobo 1, isibonelo, ulawula amazinga kashukela egazini lakho usebenzisa (i-Insulin). Nakuba isifo sikashukela singenalo ikhambi okwamanje, ungaphila impilo enempilo nekhiqizayo ngokulandela uhlelo lwakho lokwelashwa nokuqapha amazinga kashukela egazini lakho njalo.
• Ukunakekelwa Kwe-Palliative: Ukugxila ekuthuthukiseni ikhwalithi yokuphila komuntu ophila nokugula noma ukukhubazeka okukhulu ngokunciphisa izimpawu nemiphumela emibi. Isibonelo, uma ulele embhedeni, isisebenzi sezempilo singakushintshela endaweni ethile ukuze sivimbele izilonda zokulala noma sikunikeze induduzo ngokunakekelwa okusekelayo. Ukunakekelwa kwe-palliative kungase kungelaphi isimo sakho noma kunciphise ubukhali baso, kodwa kuthuthukisa kakhulu ikhwalithi yokuphila kwakho uma kuqhathaniswa nokungasitholi.

Umehluko phakathi "kokwelapha" kanye "nokululama"

Abantu bavame ukusebenzisa igama elithi 'ukwelapha' nelithi 'ukululama' ngokushintshana ngoba womabili la magama avusa ithemba. Kodwa-ke, ungaba 'sekululameni' ngaphandle kokuthi 'uphulukiswe.'Isibonelo, umuntu onenkinga yokusebenzisa izidakamizwa angase 'alulame,' okusho ukuthi impilo yakhe iyathuthuka futhi akasasebenzisi (izidakamizwa zokuzijabulisa) noma utshwala. Ukuba sekululameni akusho ukuthi isifiso sokusebenzisa lezi zinto asisekho; kunalokho, kusho ukuzibophezela okuqhubekayo endleleni yokuphila engenazo.

Umehluko phakathi "kokwelapha" kanye "nokuxolelwa"

Odokotela bomdlavuza bavame ukulinganisa impumelelo yokwelashwa ngokuhlola 'ukuxolelwa'. Nakuba 'ukwelashwa' kusho ukuthi lesi sifo sesiphelile unomphela, 'ukuxolelwa' akunikezi leso siqinisekiso esifanayo.

Ukukhululwa kungaba okuphelele noma okuyingxenye:

• Ukuphumula okuphelele: Udokotela wakho akakwazi ukuthola zimpawu zomdlavuza, futhi awunazo izimpawu. Kodwa-ke, amangqamuzana omdlavuza amancane angase ahlale efihliwe ezicutshini zakho, angatholakali ngezithombe noma ngezivivinyo ezijwayelekile. Kungenzeka futhi ukuthi awunawo amangqamuzana omdlavuza ayi-100%.
• Ukukhululwa okuyingxenye: Amangqamuzana omdlavuza asekhona emzimbeni wakho, kodwa mancane kakhulu kunangaphambili. Amathumba kungenzeka ukuthi anciphile, noma inani lamangqamuzana omdlavuza egazini lakho kungenzeka ukuthi lehlile.

Ukuxolelwa kungakhungathekisa ngoba akunaso isikhathi esinqunyiwe. Umdlavuza wakho ungase uhlale uphumule impilo yakho yonke, futhi ekugcineni ungase ushone ngenxa yesizathu esingahlobene. Ngaphandle kwalokho, umdlavuza wakho ungase uhlale uphumule amasonto, izinyanga, noma iminyaka kuze kube yilapho udokotela wakho ethola izimpawu zokuthi uyabuya. Uma lokhu kwenzeka, umdlavuza 'uphinde wabuya,' futhi ungadinga ukwelashwa okusha ukuze uthole ukuxolelwa futhi.

Ukwazi ukuthi umdlavuza wakho 'usuphelile' kuyizindaba ezinhle kakhulu, kodwa kungaba nzima uma ufuna isiqinisekiso sokuthi umdlavuza usuphelile unomphela.

Ingabe umdlavuza ungelapheka?

Impendulo emfushane ithi cha . Umdlavuza, okungenani okwamanje, awukwazi ukwelapheka kuwo wonke umuntu. Kodwa-ke, impendulo ende iyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu. Nakuba umdlavuza ungase ungelapheki kuwo wonke umuntu, ukwelashwa kwezinhlobo ezithile zomdlavuza ngokuvamile kungawususa emzimbeni wakho ngokuphelele. Yilokhu iziguli eziningi ezifuna ukukwazi ngempela.

Cabanga ngale ndlela: 'Umdlavuza' ungase uzwakale njengesifo esisodwa, kodwa akunjalo. Kunezinhlobo ezingaphezu kwe-100 ezahlukene zomdlavuza. Lezi zinhlanza zithinta umzimba wakho ngendlela ehlukile, zinamazinga ahlukahlukene obunzima, zidinga ukwelashwa okuhlukile, futhi zisabela kulezo zindlela zokwelapha ngezindlela ezihlukile. Esinye sezizathu zokwelapha umdlavuza ukuthi ziyaphumelela kakhulu ukuthi abacwaningi manje bafunda umdlavuza othize ukuze bahlele ukwelashwa ngokunembile. Ngenxa yalokho, abantu namuhla bayasinda kumdlavuza obekungaba yingozi emashumini eminyaka edlule. Kwezinye izimo, lezi zinhlanza ziya ekuphumuleni okuphelele ngemva kokwelashwa futhi aziphinde zibuye.

Ngenxa yale ntuthuko, odokotela abaningi bezifo zomdlavuza manje babhekisela kumdlavuza othize—uma utholakale usesigabeni sokuqala ngaphambi kokusabalala—njengowelaphayo. Kulo mongo, 'owelaphayo' usho ukuthi ngokwelashwa okusheshayo nokufanelekile, ithimba lakho lezokwelapha lingakwazi ukuwuqeda ngokuphelele umdlavuza.

Odokotela bezifo zomdlavuza abavami ukusebenzisa amagama anjengokuthi 'ukwelapha' noma 'okwelaphayo' lapho bexoxa ngemiphumela yokwelashwa komdlavuza. Ngisho noma amathuba okuthi umdlavuza uphinde ubuye ephansi, akunakwenzeka ukunikeza isiqinisekiso esingu-100% sokuthi iseli lomdlavuza elincane kakhulu, elalingabonakali ngesikhathi sokwelashwa, ngeke liholele ekuphindeni kwalo esikhathini esizayo.

Yimiphi imidlavuza enezinga eliphezulu lokusinda?

Abanye odokotela bezifo zomdlavuza bangase bachaze umdlavuza wakho ngokuthi 'usuphelile' uma usuneminyaka emihlanu noma ngaphezulu usesimweni esingcono. Kungenzeka kakhulu ukuthi basebenzise leli gama uma unohlobo lomdlavuza oluhambisana namazinga aphezulu okusinda iminyaka emihlanu.

Ziyini amazinga okusinda ngenxa yomdlavuza?

Amazinga okusinda komdlavuza abonisa iphesenti labantu abatholakale benomdlavuza othize abasaphila ngemva kwesikhathi esithile (ngokuvamile iminyaka emihlanu).Uphawu lweminyaka emihlanu luyingqophamlando ebalulekile, njengoba ukuphindaphinda komdlavuza kwenzeka phakathi nalesi sikhathi. Kuye ngohlobo lomdlavuza wakho, uma ungakabuyi ngalesi sikhathi, kunethuba elikhulu lokuthi ngeke ubuye.

Esinye sezilinganiso ezibaluleke kakhulu odokotela be-oncologists abasisebenzisayo ukuxoxa ngesimo sakho sempilo yisilinganiso sokusinda seminyaka emihlanu . Lokhu kuqhathanisa ukuthi bangaki abantu abanesifo somdlavuza abasaphila eminyakeni emihlanu kamuva, uma kuqhathaniswa nalabo abangenaso leso sifo. Nakuba lezi zinombolo zingenakubikezela uhambo lwakho oluhlukile, zinikeza ukuqonda okujwayelekile kwalokho ongakulindela ngokusekelwe kokuhlangenwe nakho kwabanye.

Kwabaningi abantu abanomdlavuza abatholakale futhi belashwa kusenesikhathi, izinga lokusinda kweminyaka emihlanu lidlula u-90%. Lokhu kusho ukuthi abantu abangu-90 kwabayi-100 bayaphila ngemva kweminyaka emihlanu uma kuqhathaniswa nalabo abangenayo i-diagnosis. Abantu abaningi abanale mdlavuza baphila impilo ende, ngokuvamile behlala bengenawo umdlavuza.

Ake sibheke ezinye zalezi zinhlobo zomdlavuza:
