what is the most dangerous type of cancer and what is so deadly about it?
- Samirah
Non Hodgkin?s Lymphoma / Leukemia to me is?it is a blood cancer and therefore it is everywhere?and once it gets into the last thing (Brain) it?s over?.mother fought it (she tried so hard) but it was all in her blood..and even when they tried to give her a tranfusion?it was so strong it didn?t work. Then it creeped into her spine..and therefore her brain.

i think cancer of the throat, or brain cancer would be the worst

Baby girl, they are ALL dangerous. I took care of several (lucky me right ? !) cancer patients, mostly friends and family, and to date, I think Lung Cancer is most diatressing..because you cant breathe ! Than second is Bladder cancer, because you basically have to have your insides reconstructed, thats painful ! Then comes Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, you have to have expensive blood treatments that take the wind out of you, and you never know whats gonna happen enxt, you live your life waiting for the doctors diagnosis, than theres Throat cancer, you lose your teeth, have to have them yanked out, and your throat, you cant speak, you cant eat, you have to feed through a tube in your stomach?how that for a report ?

Lung cancer and prostate/breast cancer both have high mortality rates, and are the most commonly occurring in cancer patients. Lung cancers, in particular, have issues in accessibility.
However, tumors occurring in the brain have extreme consequences, varying on the area in which they occur; Gliomas (tumors formed from the brain?s ?support cells?) tend to have a higher rate of malignant occurrence. Pressure on various parts of the brain from a growing tumor can cause debilitating, and often, long-lasting damage.
Both blood-borne and skin-borne cancers are also exceedingly dangerous; blood-borne tumors have more potential to circulate.

All metastatic cancer is deadly. All cancers are treatable in the early stages . . and can be cured . . even lung cancer. It is when the disease . . all 200 of them . . progress to the point of being metastatic that they become life threatening. Metastatic cancer is disease that has replicated itself and sent out microscopic versions of itself all over the body using the blood system or lymphatic system to travel. Cancer is a progressive disease that starts out small. As time goes on the mutated cell becomes larger and more abnormal looking . . eventually it begins to grow more tumors . . those tumors can start to seed into the blood system sending literally hundreds of microscopic cancer cells throughout the body. Those new mutated cancer cells can lodge in the brain, bones, lungs, liver . . anywhere and begin growing a whole new crop of cancer. If cancer can be removed BEFORE it becomes capable of metastasizing than . . a person may be ?cured?. The problem is that sometimes despite the best efforts . . no one knows exactly when the specific cancer tumors take on the ability to metastasize.
Some cancers metatasize quicker and more aggressive than others . .thus you can have some cancers that grow slowly for many years and pose little risk . .while others can grow and metastasize in a few weeks to months.
There are many different types of aggressive and rare cancers. The problem is that not enough research has been done to stop the progression of the disease . . thus making them far more deadly.
That is what kills people . . . the fact that the diseases have not had enough research to find treatment that is effective for that specific disease.
Thus . .it is not necessarily that there are ?more? deadly cancers than others . . but that there has been more research that has produced better treatment options. Medical science has yet to find a way to treat metastatic cancer successfully in all cases. It is possible to treat each patient individually but not the disease as a whole.
