Covid and radiotherapy
Hi as it is Sunday I cannot contact the clinic in CUH, I have tested positive for covid today. Meant to start my 2nd week of radiotherapy tomorrow morning. I presume I cannot go? I tested negative on Thursday AM, felt poorly all week though. Any advice appreciated. Will try clinic first thing in the morning but I need to travel from kerry to Cork so its all very stressful.
Hi AoifeGenevieve
Sorry to hear you tested positive for covid. That’s not the kind of stress you need. Hope you feel better soon and that it won’t cause to much of a delay to the rest of your Radiotherapy.
