No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Women with early-stage breast cancer (BrCA) are surviving longer, but many experience symptoms after curative treatments. Approximately 50% of BrCA survivors experience persistent pain post-surgery. Identifying individuals at high risk for long-term symptoms is important for restoring function and enhancing quality of life. This pilot study will investigate psychological (depression, anxiety, catastrophizing) and biological (inflammatory markers, gut microbiome, pain sensitivity) correlates of persistent post-surgical pain in women participants with early-stage BrCA. The investigators will also investigate the type of surgery that participants had and whether it is related to persistent pain. The investigators plan explore these factors over time.
