Cognitive and Emotional Strain in Brain Tumor Patients: A cross-sectional study in a Resource-Limited Setting
A brain tumor diagnosis presents significant challenges for patients, affecting them physically, mentally, and financially. In Pakistan, where mental health is often stigmatized, understanding these challenges becomes even more crucial. By addressing both the physical and mental health needs of patients, especially in resource-limited settings, targeted support can help patients cope more effectively with this devastating illness.
