Data were collected using Psychological distress questionnaire (DASS) and fear of disease progression and analysis was done by SPSS-22 software. Descriptive and inferential statistics and repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc test were used.

Results of repeated measure ANOVA showed significant difference between the two groups in mean depression and stress (P> 0.05). Anxiety scores were not significantly different between the two groups (P <0.05). Bonferroni post hoc test results showed a significant difference between the stress, depression and fear of disease progression in the pre-test, post-test and follow-up.
