Anyone developed covid while under chemotherapy?

[Maddy70]

I tested positive yesterday i know i have to go in dont i. ? Temp 39.

Will they keep me in.

I somehow avoided it.
However, with that temperature, you should at least call the chemo number who will likely advise you to go in. Don't hang around.
Hope you feel better soon.

You should phone the chemo line and see what they say but it could well be go in.

You should be able to get antivirals since you're on chemo. Have had a letter telling you who to contact? Your chemo team should be able to advise you though difficult on a weekend. You need to start them within 5 days so if you can't get in touch with them maybe phone NHS 24?

My DF did a couple of years ago, they put him on anti virals. He was fine.

I did, had IV antivirals at the time they were running clinics for it. Second time had Paxlovid tablets. First was set up via GP who referred, second time via 111 as it was the weekend and antivirals need to be given within 5 days. 111 arranged a call back and sent tablets to the nearest pharmacy.

Thank you. They are running all sorts of tests currently. Hope they dont keep me in

They're keeping me in for 5 days. Antivirals and the injections for white cells.

Thanks for your replies x

This happened to me, and all was fine x

I'm glad you're being well looked after. Best wishes for a quick recovery.

Pleased to you're being looked after. I know you didn't want to be admitted but seems like the best place for now. Hope you're feeling better soon
