Abstract

In this national survey, long-term breast cancer survivors (BCS) (n = 1,316) reported quality of life comparable to data from the general Danish female population, but a significantly higher prevalence of chronic pain (42% versus 32%). Paraesthesia, phantom sensation, allodynia, and swelling of arm/shoulder were also reported, and every fifth woman felt that these sequelae limited her daily activities. Health care utilization indicated chronic morbidity. Relatively young age, short education, and former radiotherapy were risk factors for issues such as pain.
