Full information:
You are invited to take part in an online survey investigating physical activity and breast cancer-related lymphoedema. It takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete, and all responses are completely anonymous. Any findings will contribute to advancing this area of research, and to improving the care and guidance provided to those treated for breast cancer.
In this survey you will be asked some questions relating to breast cancer treatment, lymphoedema and physical activity. This will include questions around how active you are, how you choose to be physically active and what physical activity information you may have received.
Anyone who has completed treatment for stage 1, 2 or 3 breast cancer more than 3 months ago and has had removal of 1 or more armpit lymph nodes is eligible to take part. This includes those who haven’t been diagnosed with lymphoedema.
As this survey is online you need access to a computer device, tablet or phone.
