Page Background

Tumor-related symptoms (e.g. pain, appetite loss and

constipation), which are present before treatment,

decrease substantially at the first follow-up after treatment.

Several treatment-related symptoms develop either

immediately and persist over time (diarrhea, menopausal

symptoms, peripheral neuropathy and sexual functioning

problems) or develop gradually after treatment (lymph

edema and dyspnea).
