Reality check

I think most people, especially those who are not cancer survivors, are very easily misled by the title of the article and assume that anyone who is 5 years out from breast cancer treatment fares similarly to the general population.

A better title would be, "Quality of life for 5-year breast cancer survivors not treated with chemotherapy is similar to general population". It is pretty significant that the study was only done in regard to those who never had chemotherapy.
