Mild Cold 7 Days Before Surgery

Help!! I’ve waited 10 weeks since diagnosis for my mastectomy & exactly one week before my surgery, I’ve started with a mild cold. It’s just a slightly runny nose & mild throat irritation. I’m supposed to be working until Thursday & I don’t know what to do. How can I get rid of it quickly & do you think I’ll be ok for next week?

I would speak to your team as you might be ok for next week if it doesn’t get worse and it might be best if you were to go off sick now I think to give yourself chance to rest and not be exposed to anymore bugs as there are quite a few around at this time of year. Hope you feel better in a day or two xx
