Exercise Information for Women With Cancer

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cancer

In brief

Fatigue is a troublesome symptom for breast cancer patients, which might be mitigated with exercise. Cancer patients often prefer their oncologist recommend an exercise program, yet a recommendation alone may not be enough to change behavior. Our study will determine whether adding an exercise DVD to an oncologist's recommendation to exercise led to better outcomes than a recommendation alone.
