Queen Elizabeth died September 8, aged 96. The monarch’s official cause of death is listed as natural death of old age. Now a new biography claims that Elisabet suffered from cancer in her last months.
Author Gyles Brandreth was of Prince Philip good friend. He claims Elizabeth: An Intimate Portrait – in the biography that the rare myeloma, i.e. cancer of the bone marrow, eventually took the queen’s life.
– The truth is that his majesty knew he had little time left. He accepted his fate calmly, writes Gyles Brandreth.
– I had heard that the queen had a form of myeloma cancer. Bone marrow cancer would explain his fatigue, mobility problems, and weight loss, which we often heard about during his last year of life, Brandreth reveals.
During her last year, the queen resorted to a walking stick and drastically reduced her public appearances.
– The most common symptom of myeloma is bone pain in various areas of the pelvis and lower back. It’s a disease of old people. There is no cure, but treatments can regulate the immune system and medicines can prevent bone fragility. With the help of the treatments, the patient can live another two to three years, he continues.
According to the book, the queen wanted to keep herself busy after Philip’s death, but fatigue took over. At the time, the monarch was watching the BBC drama Line of Duty.
A surprising claim
The book’s claim may surprise you, because Queen Elizabeth’s official death certificate states that she died of old age. The matter was reported by the National Record of Scotland, an agency under the Government of Scotland, which handles, among other things, population data and statistics. In the death certificate, Princess Anne is indicated as the source of information about Elizabeth’s death. Anne reportedly reported her mother’s death to the local authority.
However, according to Brandreth, it is common for old age to be recorded as the cause of death when the patient is over 80 years old and the doctor has been monitoring the deterioration of his condition for a long time.
The Queen’s health issues spoke before her death. Prime Minister with a large bruise on the back of the Queen’s palm By Liz Truss in the meeting recently raised health concerns among the Twitter people.
Health Library the pages state that myeloma is a cancer related to blood and bone marrow plasma cells. Its cause is unknown. The most common age of onset of the disease is 60–70 years. The most common symptom is bone pain somewhere in the body, because myeloma can spread to the bones and cause fractures.
