中国人的传统观念认为,过年吃药是件不吉利的事,造成许多患者在节日期间不愿吃药,唯恐吃药会给自己带来晦气。其实,这是一种完全缺乏科学依据的陈腐观念。适逢节日期间刚结束手术、进行化放疗的肿瘤患者,不论病情是否稳定,第一年春节期间都不宜轻易中断吃药。须知,保身体比避晦气更重要。 The traditional concept of the Chinese people believes that taking Chinese medicine for the New Year is an unlucky thing and many patients are reluctant to take medicine during the holiday season. In fact, this is an old-fashioned concept that has no scientific basis. For cancer patients who have just finished surgery during the festival and undergo chemotherapy and radiotherapy, regardless of whether the disease is stable, during the first year of the Spring Festival should not be easily interrupted medication. It is important to know that keeping the body is more important than avoiding suffocation.
