f someone you work with is being treated for cancer, you may want to learn more about what they’re going through. Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation are the most common types of cancer treatment.
Surgery is often the first treatment option if the tumor can be taken out of the body. Sometimes only part of the tumor can be removed. Radiation, chemotherapy, or both might be used to shrink the tumor before or after surgery. For more on this, please see Understanding Cancer Surgery: A Guide for Patients and Families.
Doctors use chemotherapy (or “chemo”) to kill cancer cells. The term chemotherapy refers to the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. Usually, the drugs are given into a vein (or IV) or they’re taken by mouth. Chemo drugs then travel through the body in the bloodstream, reaching cancer cells that may have spread (metastasized) from the tumor to other places in the body. For more about this, please see Understanding Chemotherapy: A Guide for Patients and Families.
Radiation therapy uses high energy rays (like x-rays) to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. The radiation may come from outside the body (external radiation) or from radioactive materials put right into the tumor (internal or implant radiation). Getting external radiation is much like getting an x-ray. The radiation itself is painless, but tissue damage may cause side effects. For more information, please see Understanding Radiation Therapy: A Guide for Patients and Families.
Other kinds of treatment you might hear about include hormone therapy, stem cell or bone marrow transplant, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Hormone therapy is sometimes used to treat certain kinds of prostate and breast cancers. Immunotherapy is treatment that can boost the cancer patient’s own immune system to help fight the cancer. Targeted therapy is treatment that targets the cancer cells and causes less damage to healthy cells. Please call us or visit our website if you would like to learn more about these types of cancer treatment.
You might know someone else being treated for the same type of cancer, but don’t assume that any two people will respond to treatment the same way. Each cancer is different, and each person’s response to treatment is unique. It’s best not to compare one person to another. |

surgery is only reliable if you are able to catch the cancer quick radiotherapy is worse than chemo |

as someone with relatives who have cancer
surgery is usually the first option if it's a reachable tumor, and it's only one (or affecting only a few lymph nodes)
if it's metastasized, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are used
only certain types of chemotherapy cause hair loss, and chemotherapy drugs may have dosages changed or switched completely
my aunt had cancer, and after surgery, had chemotherapy for 2 weeks. she lost all hair, but it started to grow back after. |
