3 weeks after radiation
I completed radiation therapy 3 weeks ago and had staph infection in the burns. I am on antibiotics but feeling unwell and hit temp of 38.2. Being a Sunday do I ride it out or go to emergency.

I’d say go to emergency. What a scary time for you. No point delaying with infections, esp if oral antibiotics not beating it.
best wishes - Hope you are getting treatment and feeling better @TOmmy
- Hi @T0mmy I got an infection post radiation. I was so sick and recovery was long and hard. Ended up in hospital for 10 days. I hope you are ok.
