Just wanted to pass this on to anyone concerned about getting chemo during the coronavirus outbreak.
DH had a phone all from his oncologist to check in on his progress. Just completed 8th round of FOLFOX. The conversation started off with him recommending to cancel the 9th round appointment and to pick back up two weeks later.
The oncologist assured him it would make no difference and would allow his immune system a better chance to repair itself, even though he has had no problem bouncing back each time, so far.
It was a precaution and since the cure has not flattened yet in our are, it was a precaution to take while the hospital is implementing procedures to better protect patients and staff.
Please check with your oncologist if you are concerned. Maybe you can also postpone a treatment.
