    Hi George

    Sorry to hear about your wife, its easy to put new symptoms down to past/current treatments but they could have nothing to do with that treatment. I think your wife needs to call her GP. GP will decide whether she needs to be seen and if she does it will be in a very clean/safe enviroment with protective equipment. I would try and encourage her to go...and keep trying.

    Take care x
