Can I work during chemotherapy?

Many people can work during chemotherapy, as long as they match their work schedule to how they feel.

If your job allows it, you may want to see whether you can work part-time or from home on days you do not feel well. Many employers are required by law to change your work schedule to meet your needs during cancer treatment.

How you feel can vary from day to day and cycle to cycle. Your health care team can help you think through what is realistic for your situation and treatment.
