A cancer patient undergoing difficult medical situations.

I am now undergoing Phesgo and Radiotherapy and just found out that I have Covid and a strong fever, is it recommended that the Phesgo and Radiotherapy should be now interrupted or it can still be going on? Also, what foods and supplements are needed or are relevant to a faster healing? Thanks everyone.

Re: A cancer patient undergoing difficult medical situations.

Hi Smith89,

Thank you very much for joining our community.

I am so sorry to hear that on top of everything else you have to deal with Covid.

Treaments can vary from one person to the other, so please talk to your medical team about any impact your current health condition may have in your treatment.

Best wishes

Susana
