Hi, my mum has had 12 rounds of chemo for breast cancer and is now having EC chemo. She’s just tested positive for Covid. Does anyone have any advice or experience of what this means and how to manage symptoms? Thanks
I had just the same last Christmas. She has 2 options; contact 111 NHS or contact hospital where she is having treatment, using her HEAT number that will take her through fast to speak to someone. She will be hopefully given antivirals that will sort her out. Good luck xx
