I just wondered whether anyone on here has experienced frequent interruptions to their treatment and how that affected the outcome ?
I've been on pembrolizumab since the 28th of April and on Lenvatinib since the 12th of May but due to issues re BP and then pains in the back of my head I have had more days off the Lenvatinib than on it. The pembrolizumab continues unabated but is it enough on its own.
I have scans scheduled for the 8th of August which will include a scan of my head. I should mention that sometimes they disappear completely and they are rarely bad enough to need painkillers.
Any help or advice much appreciated.
