Hello all, feeling very disappointed that my cancer has become active again, only 5 months since chemo finished. That was very successfully but obviously wasn’t easy to go through. Though to be fair,I didn’t have many side effects. Lost my hair and peripheral neuropathy but no sickness at all. Bloods stable throughout.
Generally, I am fit and well and Oncologist has suggested to try Pembrolizumab and Letvatinib combination- after testing I’m suitable. Has anyone else tried this combination? What are your experiences? Interested in how you found it as i obviously have some choices but want the most effective drugs without wrecking my body in other ways in the process.
thanks everybody
Bev (who really is trying to live well for as long as possible).
At the moment treatment is halted whilst they manage me through the kidney issue. I am improving thankfully, a close call but I think I have escaped without too much permanent damage.
