Villa Park Cancer Care: The Link between Lung Cancer, Mental Illness, and Brain Tumors

Because brain cancer affects personality and behavior, people with mental illness are more likely to be diagnosed with brain cancer sooner than others who don’t have a mental illness. Other major symptoms to look out for include the following: seizures, clumsy gait, speech difficulties, memory problems, changes in vision, nausea in older people, and sudden onset of fever. Smoking is a common behavior pattern found in those with mental illness; it is not surprising for doctors to find lung cancer, brain cancer and mental illness together.

Coping with any kind of cancer is difficult. With the assistance of trained professionals, patients with cancer can benefit from in-home care services such as personal care and grooming, light housecleaning, meal preparations, medication reminders, and transportation to doctor appointments and social events. Family members do not have to worry about leaving their loved ones alone if they know that a trusted caregiver or companion is there to tend to their needs.
