In Great Britain, a patient suspected cancer by smell and turned out to be right

British man went to doctors because of a caramel smell that was haunting him and learned about a terrible diagnosis

A resident of Great Britain had been experiencing an obsessive caramel aroma that followed him everywhere for a long time. When the man decided to go to the hospital with this unusual complaint, doctors made a shocking discovery - the patient was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer, reports unilad.com.

Initially, neither doctors nor the man's loved ones connected the strange symptom with cancer. However, diagnostics revealed one of the most aggressive forms of malignant brain tumor.

Standard methods of anti-cancer therapy proved ineffective in fighting the disease. The patient's family was forced to look for alternative, more expensive treatment options. Hope was given by specialists from Germany who agreed to accept the British man for treatment.

Medical experts emphasize that the exact causes of this type of cancer still remain a mystery to science. Doctors strongly recommend not ignoring unusual symptoms and seeking medical help promptly when they appear.
