should I go to work
I am due to start
radiotherapy
in two weeks for an inguinal lymph node. I had no worries about going to work as i am fit and well. But with all the information on the TV I am beginning to wonder if going to work is a good idea.

Recurrent Prostate Cancer
Hello. I was initially diagnosed with prostate cancer in July 2014. Been cancer free until March 2020. My PSA began to rise. My urologist recommended radiation treatment. I am currently in the midst of my radiology treatments. Today will be number 17. I have 23 more. My PSA this time was .1.6. Nothing

We do know that covid 19 is primarily affecting the respiratory system, so those that have had lung surgey or lung treatment including chemotherapy,
radiotherapy
, targeted therapies and immunotherapy and those with lung cancer should think about including themselves in the vulnerable category.

What are the options if I am unable to have
radiotherapy
? I am also concerned that if I can have
radiotherapy
it may impact on both my ED and bladder control as both are working well post surgery. As ever any advice much appreciated from this wonderful forum.

Zoladex advice please
The consultant says he can delay
radiotherapy
until after my holiday but I've heard that you get heavy bleeding for the first few weeks on Zoladex. If I have heavy bleeding I'll be doubled over in pain and the holiday won't be much fun.

Coronavirus...advice for a family member
The advice from government kept mentioning chemo and
radiotherapy
, but not immunotherapy. Obviously she’s high risk regardless, but I was just curious. Thanks for your thoughts. Xx

Update on my sister
Last time she had BC she had a lumpectomy,
radiotherapy
and 5 years taking tamoxifen. She is having a mastectomy this time because the cancer is in the same breast, but they have suggested she has reconstructive surgery . Thanks in advance.:)

High risk for COVID-19 and receiving letters/contact from NHS
may be that you slip through the net, so if have any of the below conditions, it’s probably sensible to contact your specialists directly: - people who have received an organ transplant and remain on ongoing immunosuppression medication - people with cancer who are undergoing active chemotherapy or
radiotherapy

As if the above isn't enough, Chemotherapy,
Radiotherapy
and all other cancer treatments, both for new, ongoing and maintenance patients is being suspended, all to be reviewed periodically. I can confirm that all other standard clinics such as the Ultrasound Bowel Cancer Clinic has been closed!
