Chosen as one of Cancer Research UK's Recommended Reads. Voted 5 star by Macmillan cancer patients and survivors who reviewed it. Breast Cancer: The Essential Guide - screening, treatment and beyond. Written by the winner of the non-fiction writer award at the Brit Writers' Awards 2010, Katherine Locke. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the UK, there are approximately 45,000 new cases every year. A new diagnosis can be very frightening and many people will have no prior knowledge of the disease. This book is for women and their families who are looking for a comprehensive but plain language breast cancer guide and information including breast cancer screening and treatments. Many people find that doctors, although highly qualified and well meaning, can forget how little the layperson knows about medical procedures and terminology. This breast cancer guide will take the reader through from the basics of 'what is breast cancer?' to being diagnosed and where you can get support and information, the treatment options and caring for your carers to dealing with the emotional after-effects of being a survivor. Written by a survivor of breast cancer and peer reviewed by a breast cancer specialist, this book will provide everything women need to know about breast care, being diagnosed with breast cancer, the treatments and the road to recovery.
