Rebecca Chambers got a reaction from LouT in Help in making a decision to treat or not
Thanks,
il not doing well with things after first treatment. Lots of bone pain, nausea consoled with meds, but got a lung infection so have been running a temp for over a week. Hair is starting to come about and feels like I’m wearing a cap of pins.
I know I will get through it just really hate cancer today

Thank for your advice. My PPL is 1 so he felt that immunotherapy with both Opdivo and Keytruda would only be a 2nd option at best.
Chemo would be Taxol and Carbplatin plus Keytruda for 4 cycles every 3 weeks would be my best shot. Follow up with Keytruda every 3 weeks. Seems like with Keytruda if it goes south it goes fast and bad.
I did 12 months of Durvalumab every 2 weeks. It affected my thyroid so am on medication for that.My fear is with Keytruda am I more apt to have organ damage??
I have also had C-Dif many years ago and worry about colitis.
I know there is no way to know without moving forward with treatment but having long term issues frightens me as the last thing I want is to be more of a burden on my loved ones. They have been steadfast and loving, but I worry about how fair that is to them.
