Hi

Had consultation with oncologist this morning.

He said that only chemotherapy that was to continue during the virus crisis was that what is needed to save life/ end of life treatment.

My chemotherapy was a clean up after cancer removal (hopefully)

Most of deaths re COVID -19 staying underlying conditions are on chemotherapy.

So it would be very dangerous to continue.

I have to consider myself as having finished treatment- normal timely reviews scans etc will start. I next have consultant review with oncologist in 4 months, don’t know about surgeon yet.

Still considered as on shielding

Keep safe
