Cancer has now become the leading cause of death across the globe. In the United States, one out of two men and one out of three women are diagnosed with a non-skin cancer in their entire life. Cancer patients are now surviving longer than they ever did. For example, five-year survival for breast cancer is 98% on early detection, and it is around 84% in patients with regional disease. Nevertheless, the diagnosis and treatment of cancer is extremely difficult to endure. Cancer patients frequently suffer from depression, physical dysfunctions, pain, fatigue, disfigurement, frequent visits to hospitals, financial burden of diagnosis and numerous tests and processes with probability of treatment complexities. The book elucidates several methods that can help cancer patients to look, feel and become healthier; deal with particular symptoms like arm swelling, shortness of breath, hair loss and enhance their fertility, sexuality and intimacy.
