Have not received my CURE subscription yet but thank you for sending this. I have my labs and infusion Thursday and to be honest, I am scared to death. As I had said previously, Mayo was not wearing masks and asking patients not to wear mask unless they were sick. This was last Monday and Tuesday when I went for brain radiation. Now that masks have been allowed by the CDC, I wonder if they will wear them. Because I have had progression, I am hesitant to cancel my infusion. I did receive a message on my portal that my PA will have a phone conversation with me instead of the office visit but that they feel I need to have the labs and infusion done on time. Not a great feeling. I plan on wearing a N90 mask and they will have to deal with it although I feel like I have already been exposed by 4 of them last week.

@seaspray- I have no idea why magazines take so long to be mailed. It seems as if that's prevalent throughout magazineland. Here's the link to their on-line mag. https://www.curetoday.com/

@seaspray, you can certainly wear a mask and are encouraged to do so if you have one. The guidelines are shifting everyday. You may also be interested in this article written by Mayo Clinic's Cancer Education Center team.
