Vacation with CLL

[Cazma]

Had anyone taken a foreign trip whilst undergoing treatment with Oman and venetoclax ? I'm concerned about infection 🤔

Hi, I don’t know where a foreign trip would take you, or what means of transport you would take, or for how long. But right now, treatment or no treatment, I choose not to travel. If I did catch Covid I wouldn’t know how to explain what I did to my consultant, or expect the services to treat me any faster than the rest. It’s not easy these days. Take care

Thanks for your reply. I live in Germany but have a holiday home in Spain and would drive . The problem is overnight stay in France to break the journey.

I think I know what I would do, but I can’t allow myself to write that down. Maybe ask your consultant or his nurse. And good luck whichever you choose

Hi Cazma, I live in the UK and have a holiday home in France, which I am currently visiting for the first time in over a year. We need an overnight stop too, and resolved this problem by hiring an Airbnb with a host who abides by the enhanced protocol for cleaning. We have the whole place to ourselves and it's cheaper than a hotel. We bring our own food to cook, so the risk seems manageable. Hope that helps!

thanks for your reply. We will consider Airbnb for our trip .. thanks for the tip

Treatment with Oman? I have received treatment IN Oman. Nice country, but for the time being I only take trips by car. Hotels, public transport - no thanks.

Should say omab

Hi Cazma. I'm not in treatment but I've recently completed two weeks in France and Germany, staying in 4 hotels which I carefully checked in advance and were extremely careful with their hygiene. I felt safe in all four. Hope that helps. Good luck!
