Questions on patient’s perspectives
Patient’s answers
Patient’s own feelingsI feel very upset, anxious and sad. I already passed through cancer in the past and now I have to face it again. Why is this happening to me?
Patient’s sorrow for her familyMy husband accompanies me to the hospital for visits and exams, but our life is devastated for the second time
Patient’s discomfort for treatmentsI really don’t like these injections every day and I can’t pay someone to do it for me; therefore, my husband has to do it. During infusions I feel very weak
Patient’s complaintsI feel exhausted and for every effort I need my husband’s help, because of “missing air” sensation. I can’t breathe properly
Patient’s life insights I hope the oncological treatments will help me. I should ask for psychological support. Now a second evil is in my lungs and all these complications are worsening my belief in life anymore
