Late Effects
In this highly informative film, Sheffield provides a full rundown of the after care procedures taken for late effects of cancer, occurring months or years after treatment has finished and differing from symptoms seen during illness. Affecting both physical and mental health, late effects can cover a wide range of symptoms, varying in individual cases and depending on treatment formerly received. All issues covering late effects are covered, with a wide range of information on factors such as fertility, treatment, lifestyle changes and clinics available.
