Live Well with Cancer
Continuing your regular daily routine in tandem with cancer treatment can be a challenge.
Here are several tips for living well through cancer treatment
- Be familiar with your treatment’s possible side effects and ways to relieve them.
- If fatigue is a problem, get extra rest.
- Look for creative ways to keep up with the activities you enjoy.
- Ask for the kind of support you need from family members, friends, and your community.
- Reward yourself for completing a round of treatment.
