Hi everyone 

Im currently in the 3rd round of my 8 cycles of chemo for breast cancer. 

Had my last round on 29th June. 

I have tested positive for covid this morning after waking up with a sore throat. Spoke to the chemo line, they said dont worry, just get in touch if I get a temperature or feel really unwell.

Has anyone else had covid while under going chemo? Im naturally feeling a littlw anxious and would love to hear from anyone who's been there.

Thanks in advance xx

  • hi I've so far evaded it but I had an email today from nhs saying if I do test covid I must report it online then someone will contact me to advise what treatment I will be entitled to as I have been identified as vulnerable...so I expect it would be same for you? I have seen many posts on here from patients have gone to a  &  e when they have had covid....
