Covid and impact on planned breast cancer operation

I am due to have a lumpectomy on friday10th June but despite being really careful I have had a positive covid test today. I'm so worried. Can't talk to tge hospital until Monday morning. Anyone know what the implications about the operation going ahead night be?

  • Welcome to the forum Frances although I'm sorry to hear you've tested positive for covid just before you're due to have your lumpectomy. This must be very frustrating, especially as you've been so careful.

    As you've posted your query in our nurses section of the forum I just wanted to let you know that they are not back until Monday so you won't receive a response from them until then.

    Hopefully some of our members will pick up on your post and share their thoughts and experiences with you soon but in the meantime, you may be able to get some information and advice about this from the NHS on 119.

    Kind regards,
