Managing your fear of breast cancer recurrence

Many people who have been treated for early breast cancer feel anxious and worry that their cancer may one day come back (recur). Fear of cancer recurrence is the term used to describe these worries and anxieties. This webcast will assist in providing you with the techniques and strategies to support reducing such fears.

We will explore the facts around how likely it is that your breast cancer will recur, what you need to look out for (what are the red flags) and how to manage the emotional triggers and challenges.

Participants will hear from Prof Bruce Mann, Breast Surgeon, Dr Charlotte Tottman, Clinical Psychologist, and Kathy Bell, Consumer. There will also be the opportunity to ask questions online.

    Watched last night. Charlotte/charlene explained perfectly the fear. I shared with my husband who said he thought id been quite stoic. Guess he was at work whilst i faced my mortality and shed tears!

    This webcast was great in all respects and addressed the fear we all have from time to time about recurrence.  I thought the tools for coping were so useful, and it was personal, not just clinical. Thank you BCNA for putting the webcast on demand.
