Depression During Cancer

According to Beatriz Currier, Director of Cancer Patient Support Center at Miami Cancer Institute, the stress of being diagnosed with cancer can certainly be a trigger for depression, but it's not just the emotional reaction. "We now have burgeoning evidence that the systemic inflammation that occurs during the cancer diagnosis, which is part of the biology of the cancer, can actually impact brain functioning," she highlights. A Systemic Inflammation occurs when in the environment of the tumor there are increasing levels of inflammatory molecules, those can pass into the brain and start to produce neurochemical changes in the brain.
