The Complete Guide to Breast Cancer brings together all the knowledge they have gathered as patients and as doctors to give you and your family a trusted, thorough and up-to-date source of information. Designed to empower you during your breast cancer treatment, it covers:

-Simple explanations of every breast cancer treatment

-Frank advice about sex and relationships
-Staying healthy during and after treatment
-Dealing with the fear of recurrence
-Living with secondary breast cancer

Packed full of all the things the authors wished they'd known when they were diagnosed, and tips on how to cope with surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and beyond, this is the only book you need to read to guide you through your breast cancer diagnosis.
