Breast Pain
This study was designed to examine the course of psychological
distress and pain from study entry to death in 59 women with metastatic
breast cancer participating in a randomized trial of the effects of
group psychotherapy on psychosocial outcomes and survival. It was
hypothesized that psychological distress would increase significantly
before death independent of changes in pain.Data
were collected as part of a larger study (N = 125). Analyses were based
on data from a subset of women who had died and for whom we had data
from at least three assessments. Mean levels of mood, trauma symptoms,
depression symptoms, well-being, and pain over three time points were
examined: at baseline (T1), the second-to-last assessment before death
(T2), and the last assessment before death (T3).
