Good evening all...

My mum starts radiotherapy this Wednesday, I'm her daughter  & I visit my mum daily however today I have started to feel unwell flu symptoms sore throat hot & cold aching.

She is currently in emergency rest bite care in a care home, and I would be taking her to radiotherapy appointments.

Silly question should I say away? Until I feel 100%

    Hi there ..

    Yea deff stay away .. as things are it's silly to risk anything .. it's not panic just making sure what you have .. give 111 a ring ... but they say stay in doors a week if any signs ..

    Even if it's just normal flu or carona, they are in the "at risk" group ... please don't risk it ... Chrissie...
