Ask CancerCare

Every month, featured experts answer your questions about coping with cancer.

For Any Cancer Diagnosis

• What support services should a cancer survivor look for after finishing treatment?
• I'm worried that a few side effects from my cancer treatment won't go away. Do you know how long they might last?
• I've finished treatment and now I feel like I'm on my own. Are there things I should be doing?
• I've been trying to get back to normal after ending treatment, but I'm having some trouble. Everyone is happy that I'm back to work, but I'm not sure I am. Why am I feeling this way and what should I do?
• I'm a cancer survivor and am wondering if I should seek counseling now that my treatment has ended?
• How can a cancer survivor deal with fear of recurrence?
• How can I find an exercise program that is adjusted for physical limitations I have due to having had cancer? I can't walk like I used to, because I have nerve damage in one leg and I tire easily. I thought yoga or Tai Chi, but I can't do the normal sets. Any ideas what kind of exercise I can do or where I can find modified plans?
• I finished treatment and would like information on fertility issues and cancer survivors. Can you help me?

For Lung Cancer

• I'm in remission after having chemotherapy and radiation for small cell lung cancer. I've recently started having a shortness of breath when I'm at rest (doesn't seem to happen at work). Is there anything I can do?
