Covid 19 Exposure

Posted by earscan @earscan, Nov 12, 2020

I have a biopsy tomorrow at 12:30 pm to see if my lymph nodes are positive or negative for an upcoming radical hysterectomy. Now a friend of mine who was out with us last night says she has tested positive for Covid. I can't get in touch with anyone at Mayo. Should I cancel my apts for tomorrow and Monday and Tuesday?

@earscan, have you tried contacting your care team through the patient portal?

yes, I did but it is sort of late, so no reply. I called Mayo and they said wait until tomorrow. I sure hope it won't delay my biopsy tomorrow. Like I needed this now. This person knew she had been exposed and just kept going around to places. Go figure!

@earscan, I suggest that you get a good night's sleep if you can to be prepared for all eventualities. I'm confident that you will get guidance early tomorrow morning. My thoughts are with you.
