My hsband stopped immunotherapy in August as didnt work & started chemo just under 2 wks ago.

On Sunday out the blue started going to the toilet non stop runs & feeling sick.

Hes been in urgent care Marsden  day unit yesterday on IV fluids & IV steroids, back again today & tomorrow.

As anyone suffered this colitis due to immunotherapy ( even tho stopped months ago, apparently stays in system) if so how long does it take to settle? As he still feels ill & as had enough & as said he didnt realise how bad all this would be & doesnt want anymore treatment.

So I'd like to speak to someone whos had this same issue. I thought after being in urgent care all day yesterday he would feel a bit better, but doesnt. They're also testing for stool infection.

This as been nightmare as I'm not home & trying to deal with him/docs etc in another country, as I was on a short break, to rest & its been far from that.
