Each year, more than 1 million people get treated for cancer, and most of these will undergo chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or both. This reassuring, optimistic guide helps people get a handle on treatment options and explains in plain English how chemotherapy and radiation therapy really work. It offers detailed advice on how to alleviate and cope with side effects-which range from hair loss to nausea to anemia-and describes how good nutrition, meditation, support groups, and other techniques and resources can help in the recovery process.
Alan P. Lyss, MD, is a medical oncologist. Humberto M. Fagundes, MD, is a radiation oncologist. Patricia Corrigan is a professional writer and cancer survivor.
