Any ladies who are post 3 months chemo who are not shielding now just need to know there is light at the end of this dark tunnel as I’m living away from my family and would like to move back after the 12 weeks are done whilst obviously being careful - I’ll be 4 months then x

Hi Lavender 2016

I am only one month post Chemo so can’t help with your question but I do recognise how hard it is shielding especially on your own. I want you to know your not alone.

This dark period will pass.

Sending lots of sunshine your way ☀️☀️☀️

Thank you Jackie x

Hi

I finished 3rd line chemo at the end December.

Had three letters saying I should shield.

Last week had another letter from gp saying I did not need to shield but be particularly careful.

Have walked dog every day in local woods with my husband.

Maybe your GP is the person to ask.

Good luck and take care.
