“…Fatigue, insomnia, and pain are among the most common complaints in patients with cancer diagnoses. Anxiety may intensify the experience of these symptoms, given that it strongly relates to patients' perception of cancer-related pain (Theobald, 2004;Thielking, 2003;Velikova, Selby, Snaith, & Kirby, 1995;Zimmerman, Story, Gaston-Johansson, & Rowles, 1996) as well as fatigue and insomnia (Barnes & Bruera, 2002;Fossa, Dahl, & Loge, 2003;Redeker, Lev, & Ruggiero, 2000;Stark et al, 2002). Additionally, compared to non-anxious patients, individuals with cancer and comorbid anxiety report more complications with chemotherapeutic treatments, including side effects of medications, such as tamoxifen (Cameron, Leventhal, & Love, 1998), worse nausea and vomiting (Andrykowski, 1990;Chin, Kucuk, Peterson, & Ezdinli, 1992;Watson, Meyer, Thomson, & Osofsky, 1998), and poorer response to anti-emetic drugs (Fujii et al, 2001).…”
