Third, fourth stage breast cancer patients late in seeking treatment

KOTA BARU: Most third and fourth stage breast cancer patients seek medical treatment late because they are embarrassed to go through the process, says a health expert.

Instead, these patients were more into traditional treatment, said Wan Fatihah Wan Sohaimi, head of the Nuclear Medicine, Radiotherapy and Oncology Department of Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM) in Kubang Kerian here.
