Hello everyone,
My husband is about to have his 2nd Immunotherapy treatment. So far so good, even if it’s early days.
His breathlessness is getting worse though. We know from X-ray that he has fluid again and he’s had pleural effusion drained twice before.
Today, the consultant told him this one is loculated, meaning it’s harder to drain. She will refer him to see if it’s possible to drain. Has anyone had experience of this? what is the procedure for such a drain?
Will immunotherapy help dry up such an effusion, eventually?
Thank you, Gwen
Thank you Liz.

I’m so sorry that Immunotherapy stopped working for your Dad. Heart wrenching is right. I hope that the chemo helps him.
My husband is 70. I’m devastated but trying to keep upbeat for him. I wish you, your Dad and family all the best. Let’s stay in contact x
