This trial studies the day-to-day stress, social support, and health lifestyle behaviors (such as physical activity and nutrition) in African American patients with stage 0-III prostate cancer survivors and their partners. How patients cope with stress may affect their lifestyle behaviors. This study may help understand not only survivors' behaviors but also partners' behaviors and how they interact.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well the Exercising Together program works in helping couples cope with radiation treatment for prostate cancer. Treatments for cancer can cause side effects for the patient, such as fatigue, add stress for the spousal caregiver, and put strain on the marital relationship. The Exercising Together program is designed to promote teamwork and emotional intimacy during exercise, which itself can help manage fatigue and stress for the patient and spouse, and may facilitate communication between partners about day-to-day energy, abilities, and motivation.
