NED, Remission and Cancer-free: What to Know

Effects of cancer treatment

After completing your treatment, there are some symptoms that may still linger. This occurs in some patients because of their weakened immune system. Some of these symptoms include;

  • Hot flashes
  • Pain
  • Fatigue [4]
  • Loss of appetite

There are some options to help a patient experiencing these symptoms after completing treatment. Rehabilitation helps people to manage the after effects of the treatment. Consult your healthcare team if any of the symptoms persist or if any new one arises. Some people beat themselves up because they survived this disease while others couldn’t. Do not feel guilty for being a survivor, you should be grateful instead.
