Many people find that once treatment begins, some of the uncertainty-related anxiety can improve as they gain a clearer understanding of what to expect and develop coping strategies. However, everyone's experience is unique, and it's completely normal for anxiety levels to fluctuate throughout the cancer journey as new challenges and milestones arise.
