B
Only symptoms that are distressful for a dying client should be treated. Such symptoms include pain, nausea and vomiting, dyspnea, and agitation. These problems interfere with the client's comfort. Even when other symptoms disturb the family, such as anorexia or weight loss, they should only be treated if the client is distressed by their presence.
