Patients with early-stage breast cancer can often return to work after their initial treatment of surgery, chemo and radiation. If a woman chooses breast reconstruction, the time out of work may increase. Patients with late-stage breast cancer may not be able to work, depending on the treatment. Some patients may have a heavy chemotherapy schedule and may feel too weak to work. On the other hand, some patients may have treatment that completely removes any sign of cancer, and they have "No Evidence of Disease." These patients may be able to work as much as they want to, because their treatment doesn't limit them in any way.
