Fatigue after early breast cancer often fades: study

NEW YORK, Apr 21: Many people treated for cancer are worn out for a time, but new findings suggest that long-lasting fatigue may be less common than thought—at least for women with early-stage breast cancer. The study, of 218 women treated for early breast cancer, found that almost one-third had “cancer-related fatigue” at the end of treatment. But far fewer—six percent—still had the problem a year later. (agencies)
