Answer:

He was using repressive methods to deal with cancer for the past few months.

Explanation:

IN terminal diseases such as grade 4 or t4 malignant neoplasms with metastasis and invasion of neighboring tissues or organs, they are highly painful, thus generating depressive or psychosis symptoms in patients.

That is why drugs are used that repress the path of pain and even generate feelings of gratification as in the case of opioids.

An example of opioids is morphine, which inhibits the pain pathway but its disadvantages or adverse effects are highly risky since they compromise cardiac health.

How do you treat a rattlesnake bite on the oregon trail?
Tatiana [17]
<span>In an event of a rattlesnake bite, keeping the person bitten to calm down is the 1st thing to do. When the venom reaches the heart of the victim, it could lead to a fatal death. So by calming down, the circulation of blood is prevented to rise. After which, they directly cut an "x" at the middle of the bite marks and suck out blood as many as possible hoping that the venom is also sucked out too. This was an old technique used in the Oregon trail and may not be the best technique there is nowadays.
