This case report describes an effort to control two primary side-effects of 
breast cancer radiotherapy (fatigue and skin discomfort) that used a combination 
of cognitive-behavioral therapy with hypnosis (CBTH). Two patients, matched on 
demographic and medical variables (marital status, employment status, number of 
children, cancer diagnosis, surgical history, radiation dose), were compared: 
one who received a CBTH intervention and one who received standard care. Results 
were consistent with the view that CBTH was effective in managing fatigue and 
skin discomfort, and increasing relaxation.
