Many patients can feel many types of feelings after they finish cancer treatment.
Some patients feel relieved, while others may feel:
- Happy or sad
- Anxious or scared
- Angry or moody
- Weak
- Lonely
- Afraid of the cancer coming back or the changes they
These feelings are very normal. They might change as you move farther away from finishing your treatment.
There are community counselling services offered to patients and their family members or caregivers.
