    • Chad, Good news on the surgery and remember that we're here for any questions you may have as you go through this. Lou
    • For me, Durvalumab after radiation resulted in live-threatening pneumonitis. There is a note in my chart that basically says, Never again.  After the reaction you describe, I wonder why durva would even be a consideration. I hope your discussion with your care team will clarify this.  Keytruda's website says that it is not appropriate for patients with EGFR and ALK mutations. You didn't mention biomarkers. Your next treatment plans will be dependent on those. You might think about reviewing any genetic study you received-- mine had detailed discussions of treatment options for each of my mutations.  If you want to see the current standard of care pathways for your stage and type of cancer, the National Comprehensive Cancer Center has a series of charts that lead you through the recommendations for different mutations. Good luck!     
    • Great news. Here's hoping your recovery is uneventful and swift.
