Managing heart health during and after cancer treatment can be daunting. Here you will find resources related to your questions and concerns.
Cardio-Oncology is Vital for Patients with Cancer
Cancer treatments have advanced to improve life expectancy and quality of life. However, sometimes, these life-saving remedies can cause heart problems during and after treatment. Heart problems are usually minor, and can usually be managed with screening and treatment, but at times can be more severe.
These problems can arise during treatment but also years later, once treatment is over. That is why annual heart and medical checkups are important.
