Anxious

Hello, I am new here. I am a recently diagnosed type 2 diabetic; I currently on steroid treatment for an operated knee,.
I had a blood clot (DVT+PE) around my lungs last year and I suffer shortness of breath. I am a qualified nurse working in frontline in London. Should I be very worried?

Hello there Kibude

Have you read through the guidance on our behaviours, during this period?

The list outlining those considered to be extremely vulnerable, and thereby required to follow increased requirements is below. You will note it mentions lung conditions, but I would have no idea if your post-DCT/PE situation is swept into there:



This is the full link. I suggest you have a good read: https://www.gov.uk/government/publi...ng-extremely-vulnerable-persons-from-covid-19

In your shoes, if I were also feeling anxious, I would be talking with Occupational Health, to ensure they are aware of your current package of conditions and state of health.
