In this health guide, breast cancer survivor and nurse Lucia Giuggio Carvalho provides a basic overview of breast cancer, its biology, psychology, and treatment options. This comprehensive approach to facing breast cancer covers:
- Physical changes that occur with treatment, such as hair loss, early menopause, fatigue, sexuality, and weight in/loss
- Treatment options, including surgery, chemotherapy, clinical trials, radiation, hormonal therapies, and reconstructive surgery
- Support systems, medical insurance coverage, and financial onsiderations
- Complimentary alternative medicine choices, and more
