Listen in as Alicia and Lizette speak with retired medical social worker and oncology social work leader, Patrice Al-Shatti, MSW, LMSW. Patrice developed the first patient education materials, assessments, and programming on the topic of Cancer-Related Fatigue Syndrome for Mayo Clinic. She explains the difference between fatigue and cancer-related fatigue, the varying physiological and biological factors, and helpful strategies known to improve quality of life.

A really helpful podcast. I am not surprised that my fellow Social Workers are at the fore in this. I will be working on the muscle rebuilding which is an area I have neglected--and I know better, just not organized after 5 years of taking care of dogs 3 days a week and now not doing anything on those days. Planning will come in handy too.
