Has Covid - 19 in any way (whether you are diagnosed with it or not) affected your ability to access the healthcare you feel you need?

It may be that I live in rural Ireland and that I finished my primary EBRT, but my primary care doctor injects my Zoladex every 12 weeks whilst wearing full PPE. When I need my bloodwork tested, same as above. Local Pharmacy is also great at providing my monthly heart meds. All in all, I get great care and because of my circumstances all primary care is free. Cancer drugs are free, my heart drugs cost €12 per month. Currently my cancer follow ups are by telephone soon after each PSA test, I expect that to continue until 2022.

I value the space that you administer on healthunlocked, keep up the good work.

Thanks,

Hugh
