A member asked:
Could my immune system still be compromised 2 years after chemo and radiation for stage 1 breast cancer? i seem to get sick a lot now.

Possible: Talking about immune suppression is difficult because there are so many different mechanisms that can become impaired. Would go back to your oncologist and discuss your concerns. There are a variety of tests which can be done.

Not likely: Your immune system should have recovered in this interval. It is appropriate to have an evaluation by your physician to see what may be contributing to your problem of frequent illness.
