Summary
Cancer-related fatigue caused by cancer and treatment reduces patients' compliance with treatment. Fatigue caused by chemotherapy usually has multifaceted symptoms, such as being very tired, feeling weak, desperate for rest, or decreased activity. Cancer-related fatigue is often the main reason why patients are reluctant to continue treatment. Even after finished chemotherapy, most patients still feel fatigued. Therefore, how to solve the patient's fatigue caused by cancer and treatment is a very important issue, and there is no effective treatment at present. This project plans to use the Jin Si herbal tea developed by our hospital to improve cancer-related fatigue.
