1. THE EFFECT OF
BREAST CANCER IN
DAILY LIFE

2. BREAST CANCER
RECURRENCE
Someone who has previously been diagnosed with and cured of
cancer develops cancer again. Recurrences can happen in the
same location or an entirely different location and variety of
cancer.

3. CHEMOTHERAPHY SIDE EFFECTS
Powerful drug-based treatment that attempts to
eradicate the body of cancer cells. The potency of
the drugs cause often severe side effects in patients
including hair loss, mouth sores and nausea

4. Some chemotherapy patients report a mild to severe
loss in cognitive function informally known as
"Chemo Brain". Chemo Brain manifests itself much
like dementia or Alzheimer's; patients struggle to
remember basic information such as addresses,
names and dates. Most patients will eventually
recover their cognitive loss.

5. EMOTIONAL IMPACT
Breast cancer takes a significant physical and emotional
toll on patients. The physical impact is fairly obvious,
but many women will experience severe anxiety,
distress and even depression during their treatment
process.

6. MOBILITY ISSUES AND FATIGUE
Incessant sleeping, inability to feel rested upon
waking up, lack of interest in social and outside
activities. Fatigue from breast cancer treatment is
exacerbated by other breast cancer treatment side
effects such as weight gain, depression and
stress.
