how is everyone coping with this hot weather that we are having, I’m under going emmunotherapy and not sure if I am supposed to stay out of the sun or not as anybody been told to stay out of the sun when having this treatment.
Hiya Kaneo
My specialist nurse said You should stay out of direct sun, your immunotherapy treatment can make you more susceptible to sunburn and if you should use a high protection sun lotion when you go out. I have followed this advice and use sun lotion everyday as part of my skin care.
Hope this helps
