Zolakwitsa zamankhwala ndiye wakupha wamkulu wachitatu ku America, atadwala matenda amtima ndi khansa, malinga ndi Mtengo wa BMJ. Ofufuzawo adasanthula zambiri za satifiketi yakufa kuchokera ku kafukufuku yemwe adachitika zaka makumi awiri ndikupeza kuti pafupifupi anthu 251,454, kapena atatu peresenti ya anthu, amamwalira chaka chilichonse chifukwa cha zolakwika zamankhwala.

Koma ngakhale ambiri a ife tinadabwa ndi nkhaniyi, madokotala sanatero. "Ichi ndi chimodzi mwazinthu zazikulu kwambiri pankhani yazaumoyo masiku ano ndipo ndichinthu chofunikira kwambiri," atero a Anton Bilchik, MD, wamkulu wa zamankhwala komanso wamkulu wazofufuza m'mimba ku John Wayne Cancer Institute ku Providence Saint John's Health Center ku Santa Monica, California. (Zokhudzana: Nawa Madokotala Odwala Amazindikira Molakwika Kwambiri.)

Zolakwitsa zofala kwambiri zamankhwala zimachitika chifukwa cholakwitsa ndi mankhwala akuchipatala, monga kupereka mankhwala osokoneza bongo kapena kugwiritsa ntchito mulingo wolakwika, Bilchik akufotokoza. Mankhwala amayenera kugwiritsidwa ntchito mwanjira inayake makamaka munthawi zina ndikusiyana nazo, makamaka mwangozi, zitha kuyika wodwala pachiwopsezo. Zolakwa zaopanga opaleshoni ndizachiwiri kwambiri, akuwonjezera, ngakhale nthawi zambiri ndimomwe timamva kwambiri. (Monga nthawi yomwe dokotala adachotsa mwendo wolakwika kapena kusiya chinkhupule mkati mwa wodwala kwazaka zambiri.)

Pankhani yodziteteza ku vutoli, odwala ndi madokotala amagawana nawo udindo, atero Bilchik. Kumbali ya zamankhwala, njira yodzitchinjiriza yatsopano yodziwika bwino ndikusinthira zolemba zonse zamagetsi zamagetsi, zomwe zimatenga zolakwika zamunthu, monga kulembera koyipa, ndipo zimatha kuwonetsa zovuta zomwe zingachitike ndikugwiritsa ntchito mankhwala osokoneza bongo kapena mikhalidwe yomwe ilipo. Kafukufuku wina waposachedwa adapeza kuti 75 peresenti ya madotolo adati zolemba zamagetsi zamagetsi zimawathandiza kupereka chisamaliro chabwino. (Chochititsa chidwi n’chakuti tinamugwira kuti akambirane naye nkhani imeneyi atangotuluka m’nkhani yomwe inakonzedweratu yonena za kuchepetsa zolakwa zachipatala, mchitidwe umene ukuchulukirachulukira m’zipatala kulikonse.)

Koma pali zambiri zomwe mungachite kuti mudziteteze ku zolakwika zamankhwala nanunso. "Chofunika kwambiri ndi kukhala omasuka kulankhula ndi dokotala ndikufunsa mafunso," akutero Bilchik. "Funsani 'pali mwayi wotani pa izi?' ndipo 'muli ndi njira ziti zothetsera zolakwitsa? " Akuwonjezeranso kuti mutha kuyang'ananso mbiri ya dokotala wanu kudzera mumaakaunti anu.

Chinthu chimodzi: Nthawi zonse onetsetsani kuti mwalandira mankhwala. Bilchik akuti zonse zili bwino kuti muwonetsetse kuti mukulandira mankhwala oyenera ndi mlingo wofunsa wamankhwala, namwino, kapena dokotala. (Kodi mwawona pulogalamuyi yomwe ikufanizirani malangizo anu ndi malangizo ochokera kwa madokotala enieni?) Ndiye, zili ndi inu kuti muwonetsetse kuti mukutsatira malangizo awo ku kalatayo, akuwonjezera.
