Brain Tumor

   It is one of the most serious diseases in Pakistan. Brain tumors have one of the lowest survival rates of all types of cancer but unfortunately, still, there is no treatment for this disease and no well-qualified doctor to treat patients with brain tumors in Pakistan. Besides this, most brain tumor happens when brain cell change in DNA, and men are more likely than women to develop brain tumor. It is mostly common in children between the ages of 5 and 8. Furthermore, it causes vomiting, personality changes, muscle weakness, and problems with learning or memory. 

   A patient with a brain tumor cannot live more than one year. Surgical removal by and large is the most effective treatment of brain tumors. With early treatment, more than 85% of patients survive for 5 years, and when it is in the last stage the survival chances will be less than 40% when it is in the first stage. Brain tumor patients mostly have a headache, feeling or being sick, and seizures. The rate of brain tumors is increasing day by day. Finally, it is my humble request to the government of Pakistan to bring well-qualified doctors to treat this disease.
