The goal of this research study is to learn how frequently cancer patients in the Supportive
Care Center have chronic, non-malignant pain. Chronic, non-malignant pain is pain that is
neither related to cancer nor its treatment and lasts beyond the normal tissue healing time
of 3 months.

If participant is found to be eligible and agrees to take part in this study, participant
will be asked to complete 3 questionnaires about participant's pain, pain level, and what
drugs participant takes to treat participant's pain. Participant will also be asked a few
questions about tobacco use. These questionnaires should take about 20 minutes to complete.

Researchers will also collect information from participant's medical record such as
participant's date of birth, sex, race, marital status, economic background, and medical
history.

questionnaire.
