- Yay for you @IlonaC I also did round 2 Monday.
- IlonaCMemberThanks ladies
I was allowed to have the chemo today as I had no fever and only light cold symptoms so round #2 done many more to go
Have a great day - Hi @IlonaC,
When is your chemo? I know exactly how you feel - I got sniffles and twinge of sore throat before my second chemo and was all worried about messing up my schedule. I just kept reminding myself to take this one step at a time and accept that at some point I might have a session shifted!
Thankfully it faded away so was probably hayfever - I suspect the gargling (with salt or bicarbonate) that we’re told to do with chemo might help throats too.
Additionally I read online about people being able to still do their chemo with a cold. But that’s up to the medical professionals who are attending to you, so yes best to check in with them.
Big hugs and hoping it clears up soon. - arpieMemberThat's a bummer @IlonaC - ring the Onc nurses & talk it over with them.
Ask them if you could take an antihistamine to try & dry it up? I'd be surprised if it isn't postponed ....
Do you have a temperature? There is still plenty of Covid around (sadly) so maybe do regular tests too xx
Take care & I hope you feel better soon.
