Hi and welcome to the Online Community.
I am so sorry to read about your diagnosis and your treatment being held up due to you catching Covid. I have not thankfully had a positive test so no experience to help you there.
You will find talking with others who are walking the exact same type of cancer treatment path will help you navigate this unwanted journey.
The New to Community is like the Community Reception area and as there are many cancer types and experiences so likewise the Community has many dedicated support groups and I see you have already joined our supportive Breast cancer group as this will be a good place for you to connect with other folks who may be on the same cancer treatment pathway.
