Hi, I have a streaming cold and am due to have chemo on Wednesday (folfox) just wonderingi if anyone else has gone ahead with chemo or been delayed due to a cold? Thanks.
Hi nan nan,
It's so annoying, I haven't had a cold for over a year . I had blood and Covid tests this morning so should find out tomorrow. Yes, let's hope we can both go ahead with treatments. X
Hi both, if I remember rightly they stopped my chemo when I was poorly with a bad cold, but my regime was a different one anyway. They may do additional bloods to check and go from there. Fingers crossed for you!
Thanks nan-nan, my bloods were still good and I felt much better this morning so went ahead with treatment. Just waiting for my scan results from Monday now, I hate the waiting.
Your name is what my grandchildren call their great gran.
Hope you are feeling better soon x
Hey, , that was good news, one more ticked off! And we share a name I guess!
That sounds like you're in it for the long haul! Might help others if you filled in your profile? Stay safe
