hello my husband is due to have his second lot of nivolumab tomorrow and for the past 2 days he has been very lethargic and sleeping on and off is this part of the treatment and did anyone else have this side effect
Good Morning Kerry88, im sorry i do not know about this drug and the side effects as i had radio and chemo using cisplatin. I think it would be advisable to let them know today about your concerns of the side effects he is having, it could be quite normal as we all react differently to drugs, but worth a quick chat with the Dr/nurse. Hope all goes well,take care .
