Life with cancer -- and cancer treatment -- means learning to manage symptoms and side effects. That’s where palliative care comes in. Its goal is to give you relief from pain and discomfort when you have a serious illness. You may also hear it called comfort care, supportive care, or symptom management.
It focuses on easing symptoms like nausea, pain, fatigue, and shortness of breath. And it helps you manage the strain of cancer by helping you handle the emotional side of the disease.
Treatments might include medicine, nutrition therapy, physiotherapy , and relaxation techniques like deep breathing. You may even be offered emotional and spiritual counseling, also as practical help to manage insurance, legal, or employment issues.
Palliative care can help guide you when it’s time to form decisions about your treatment. It can also help out family and friends who are supporting you during this time.
