Hi everyone I had my first treatment of this drug 3 weeks ago and my side effects of Joint pains and muscle weakness affect my mobility and doesn’t seem to be easing. I would appreciate any feedback about this problem from anyone on this treatment.

Hi and welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to read that you're struggling with side effects after treatment with pembrolizumab.
As the online community is divided up into different support groups, if you could tell me what sort of cancer you're receiving this treatment for I could recommend a group for you to join where you could ask about the side effects you're experiencing.

Thanks for that
This is the link to the lung cancer group which I'm sure you'll find is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.
To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
