A Nutritionist Answers your Questions about Nutrition After a Breast Cancer Diagnosis
A breast cancer diagnosis comes with so many questions and there never seems to be enough time at appointments to have some of these questions answered. To help address this, the Canadian Breast Cancer Network has put together a Q&E: Questions and Experts series. In this series, a variety of experts, including medical oncologists, genetic counsellors, social workers, drug access navigators, and many more, will spend the entire virtual session answering questions from participants. So now is the time to get answers to all the questions that there never seems to be enough time to ask.
Melissa Harley, RD, CDE is a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator with over 15 years' work experience as a clinical dietitian. She currently works at the Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre. In this position, she provides nutrition support to patients as they navigate their cancer journey. She provides nutrition education and diet to help prevent, and mange nutrition-related side effects associated with treatment and also supports and manages patients receiving enteral nutrition (tube feeding).
In this session, participants will be able to get their questions about nutrition following a breast cancer diagnosis answered. Questions can be asked during the event, or submitted in advance to Bukun at badegbembo@cbcn.ca using the subject line ‘nutritionist question’.
