Hello everyone, I’ve just come out of hospital having suffered the Collitis side effect of immunotherapy. Well mine was Enteritis (small intestine). I want to give encouragement to those worried about it as I was. It was painful at times I can’t lie but I’ve gone through it, they treated it with infliximab, the steroids didn’t work for me, and I’m recovering well. They took care of me and in the greater scheme of things I’ve come through the other side. I did question if was all worth it in my darkest moments but it is and the support is there, we aren’t alone. I reckon there must have been 30 or 40 people on my side that were in and out my room at least, doctors, nurses, nurse advocates, cleaners, a really post
Hi Balletstar
I'm sorry to read that your suffered collitis as a side effect of immunotherapy but glad to hear that you're now recovering well.
