  3. How do I Cope with Changes in my Body? A cancer diagnosis and treatment can bring about physical changes to your body and impact your body image. It may include loss of hair, scars, loss of appetite, bowel/bladder control issues, pain, fatigue, and drastic weight changes. The changes in your body are a constant reminder of your cancer.

  4. But remember that it is normal to experience a range of emotions when coping with these changes to your body. • The changes in your body are a constant reminder of your cancer. • Give yourself time to adjust and try to avoid going down the path of decreased self-esteem, social isolation, anxiety and depression.

  5. Self-care tips have helped most survivors: Exercise, even a short walk, releases endorphins, a naturally occurring mood booster.
