What should I look for once my treatments are done?

After treatment for cancer, you’re likely to be more aware of your body and notice slight changes in how you feel from day to day. Your doctor will want you to report any symptoms.

If you have any of the problems listed below, call us right away:

  • A pain that persists, especially if it is always in the same place.
  • Persistent lumps, bumps, or unusual swelling.
  • Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or loss of appetite.
  • Unexplained weight loss.
  • Persistent fever or cough.
  • Unusual rashes, bleeding, or bruising.
  • Any other signs your doctor or nurse instructed you to watch for.
