New research suggests that cancer survivors who feel lonely may be more likely to die than survivors who have more social support.
MONDAY, June 5, 2023 -- There’s a"loneliness epidemic" in the United States, and feelings of isolation have been linked to heart disease, stroke and other health conditions.
“It is also possible that cancer survivors who feel lonelier might not receive the practical and emotional support they need for their symptoms,” Zhao added. Cancer survivors who reported any loneliness were more like to die during the follow-up period than their counterparts who were not lonely. The more lonely a person was, the greater their risk of dying, the study showed.
“Ask cancer survivors about their feelings or help them navigate programs that can screen for loneliness and provide social support to those in need,” she advised.
