Breast cancer – after treatment
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. This cancer also sometimes occurs in men. Fortunately, more and more people are surviving this disease, but what happens after treatment? How do you pick up your life again, how do you deal with the physical and mental consequences of the treatment and how do you learn to trust and love your body again?
We talk to two experts from the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek hospital: Hanna van der Pol, a nurse specialist and Anke Koemans, a support consultant at the Center for Quality of Life. In this clear conversation everything you can worry about after the treatment is discussed: fatigue, anxiety, getting used to your body again after a mastectomy, the reactions of the family and the environment, going back to work and sexuality. Highly recommended for anyone who has had breast cancer and of course also for their partners, relatives and friends.
