Alsalaamu Alaikum
Could a Muslim refuse cancer treatment since it will be very painful, long, and extremely expensive. Also if it works it will only give the patient few more years with no quality of life. Is it Haram to refuse treatment and just leave it to Allah SW ?

If the treatment will cure him, he has to take it unless there is other issues.
