Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most diagnosed cancers among African American women, yet research into their experiences with treatment lags behind. In particular, few studies have examined how African American women cope with fatigue, the most common side effect of treatment. To help fill the gaps, my research colleagues and I explored how fatigue affects African American women undergoing breast cancer treatment.
