May2 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Is it normal to feel joints pain, muscle soreness, after Keytruda infusion? I feel inflammation all over. Feels like light flue symptoms, body aches, a bit of caughing, and low energy. Any recommendation on what might help? Should I ask my doctor for an anti-inflammatory medication? Or should I just wait it out. I am having to ice my joints every morning My oncologist said it is too early to have joints pain after the first infusion. 🤷🏻♀️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyWifeSCLC Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Hi May ... welcome to the forum. Wish it was under other circumstances. How many infusions have you had? I read that Keytruda symptoms can happen at anytime, including well after treatment. My wife is taking chemo and she felt horrible on day 1. I couldn't say about immunotherapy drugs.
