I was treated for DCIS last year, with my radiotherapy completing on the 23rd December 2019. Due to coronavirus and prior to government guidelines being put in place, I contacted the NHS and asked the question of whether or not I should self-isolate. I was told that because my treatment finished almost 12 weeks ago, it would be OK not to self-isolate.
I have now received the letter from the NHS, which I assume was sent to me as I fall into the high risk category. My treatment was for pre-cancerous cells and I didn’t view myself as high-risk.
My husband on the other hand was treated last year for tonsil cancer, but he hasn’t received such a letter.
Obviously, we are both isolating at home now, but I feel a bit thick.

I am 4 1/2 years out from my last treatment but also got the letter 
Better safe than sorry.
