Undergoing Cancer Treatment

What Is Undergoing Cancer Treatment

There are numerous types of cancer treatments. The type of treatment you receive will depend on the type of cancer you have, your preferences and options offered and discussed with your physician, and how advanced the disease is.

Some individuals will have only one treatment, while many others will have combination treatments. These treatment regimens may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormone therapy. These are discussed in more detail below in the “Treatment” section.

When you need treatment for cancer, there is often a lot to learn and a lot to think about. According to the National Cancer Institute, it is quite normal to feel overwhelmed and confused. However, learning about your cancer and discussing your specific diagnosis with your physician can help alleviate much concern. In addition, there are numerous support groups, forums, and other advocacy organizations that can help you cope with your condition. Finally, family and friends offer a wonderful source of love, compassion, and sources of strength to help you endure this trying time.
