Chemo and Corona Virus

Silverdays
Offline

I spoke to my Oncologist today. My 3rd chemo is going ahead Monday. Blood test tomorrow at GP's.

Doctor advised that I was doing the right thing, by self isolating. I am not having any friends or family to the house and staying in. My partner is still going out to work but being careful not to mix in crowds.

Getting anxious before the next chemo, finding it challenging, but that will be 3 down and 3 to go, halfway. At least it's going to sunny next week Hurrah! ️

    Evening

     

    My hubby getting blood tests tomorrow and hopes 2nd of 4 chemo goes ahead Monday 

    We're doing the same as you, I go out for food only and no one visiting at the moment 

    We do walk the dog, both of us in morning for a short walk, and I take dog further later on. Good to get out and hoping for sun this weekend, even if cold 

    Stay safe x

    I'm doing the same. Got a phone appt with my oncologist on Monday to find out plans for my bloods and cycle 3 of 4 that's due next week... 

    My partner and I are both self isolating with friends kindly leaving shopping on the doorstep as I can't get any online delivery slots although I see local shops and restaurants are now starting to offer deliveries to those who are self isolating.

    Stay safe and I hope your treatments next week go ok.
