How do I know if I have cancer symptoms?

Can you fully recover from cancer treatment?

Yes. Early diagnosis and early detection can increase your chances of surviving cancer. With advanced medical treatment, your chances of positive outcomes will also increase.

 
How effective are cancer therapies?

As there is no one-size-fits-all approach, coming up with a treatment plan is one of the most significant parts of your battle against cancer. The treatment plan differs from patient to patient depending on the extent, type, shape, and location of the tumor, and will be designed to closely monitor the disease progression while ensuring healthy cells are minimally affected.

Some treatments cause side effects, so it is vital to address them with your doctor. To determine the effectiveness of chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment, you need to undergo a physical examination, blood tests and imaging tests such as X-ray, computerized tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan or positron emission tomography (PET) scan. Because cancer can sometimes relapse in the same location or elsewhere in the body.

Can you live a normal life while undergoing chemotherapy?

Yes and no. Generally, undergoing chemotherapy can be challenging. There will be limitations to otherwise normal routines as energy levels are low. However, some patients have little to no side effects.

What are some ways to prevent cancer?

Cancer is a disease that affects millions of people worldwide, but there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. One of the most important steps you can take is making healthy lifestyle choices, such as eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.

Additionally, screening tests can detect some cancers early. It is important to talk to your doctor about which screening tests are right for you based on your age, gender, and family history.

What are some self-care practices for cancer patients during treatments?
Undergoing cancer treatment can leave you weak and fatigued. Apart from getting adequate rest, do not be afraid to ask for help from friends and family, be it whether you need assistance with house chores or to cook a meal. A balanced and nutritious diet is vital in ensuring your body remains strong throughout treatment. Our in-house dietitian offers nutrition counseling to help you plan a proper diet. Staying hydrated is also key as you do not want to risk dehydration. Keep your hydration levels up by drinking more fluids, including water, juice or soups. Your battle against cancer will be challenging, both physically and emotionally. Should you feel anxious or worried, do not hesitate to reach out to any of our team members here at the Cancer Centre. Tip: Approach our dietitian for a personalized meal plan to complement your cancer treatment.
