“…In one study sample the patients received radiation therapy (Maher et al, 1996) and in the other patients were compared at different stages of their disease (Caroll et al, 1993).

“…Anxiety level was shown to be high in whom less than 1 year was passed after the diagnosis of cancer. Most literatures showed that psychological distress was prominent at the diagnosis of cancer and slowly improved over time (Nordin et al 1996;Bergerot et al 2015).
