Hi Scar and welcome to the Online Community, although I am always sorry to see folks finding us and so sorry to hear about your diagnosis.
Would having treatment make you more open to COVID is a good question and one for your medical team. I was over 4 years post my blood cancer treatment and in remission and I was told I was still at risk so had to shield.
A cancer diagnosis brings a lot of confusion, stress and many questions but talking with other people who are on the same type of journey helps a lot.
The Community has various cancer specific support groups and I see you have joined our Bladder cancer group, this is the place where you will connect with others walking the treatment journey both as patient or family.

All the very best.
