Hello and thank you fo reading in advance.

 

I need some advice, I am due to have my cancer removed. On Tuesday but tested faint positive Monday for covid, I haven't tested again yet.

 

what are the chances my op will go ahead or will it be cancelled ? Has anyone else had similar happen to them, I've geared myself up ready for the op to only now get this damm thing.

  • Dear Sal777

    I'm really sorry to hear you have tested positive for Covid. 

    I'm afraid I don't know what the chances are that your operation will be cancelled, only The team that have been looking after you will be able to tell you whether they want to go ahead with your surgery.  You should have a number to contact them on, so you can talk this through with them and it might be a good idea to do this sooner rather than later. 

    We do have some information which you may find helpful about Covid and surgery on our website here 

    If you want to chat to one of our nurses please give us a ring on Freephone 0808 800 4040, the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Best wishes, 

    Rachel
