Hi everyone . After having my appointment I now have to decide if I want immunotherapy. My oncologist said I had a 67% chance that the cancer would not return in the next three years but with immunotherapy that would be 76% . This is not obviously a personalised stat as she accepted I am high risk with a Leibovich score of 7 and that the tumour had the vascular . Nethertheless I see other on here and other forums that are in the same position as me and have been advised by their oncologist to take treatment . My doctor told me the side effects could be serious though obviously they can give me meds for them . She also said that if the cancer returns whilst on the immunotherapy then I would not get access to the ‘ Good Stuff ‘ as she named it for a further 12 months . She told me she was totally on the fence with it but to me it seemed she was veering towards not wanting me to have it though she never actually said the words. I was also told today that 4 in 5 of her patients tend not to go for the treatment . Obviously though this could be for other reasons such as age or other health conditions . I have two weeks to discuss this with my wife and then the oncologist will ring me for an answer .
