      We're in the anti-pd-1 study at moffitt.  So far Dr. weber has only seen a few ocular primaries and no reponders only stable disease.  Here's hoping we change that to responders.  Anyone responded long term on this drug with an ocular primary.  We start on Oct. 31.  Any comments welcome.  Margaret

          Hi Margaret,

             I'm so glad Butch got in the trial. I would love to be able to get into an anti-pd1 trial. How is Butch feeling? How often will you have to travel to Florida? Sending prayers your way. Keep me in your prayers also, as I have scans the first part of Nov. and I'm hoping to see some reduction since my Ipi and cyberknife this past summer

          Hugs,

          Nan

                      Just wondering how the trial is going so far?  How is he feeling?  Any side effects we should be aware of?

                                The anti-pd-1 trial is going good.  Butch's only side effects is slight fatique and slight flu-like symptoms for a few days after infusion.  He's had 2 now..The trip to Tampa (about 600 miles) every 2 weeks is the roughest thing so far..Will try to keep you guys informed.  Hugs, Margaret Rogers

                                  Yes please keep us informed . When will he have his first scans? 600 m round trip every 2 weeks very hard I found 430m round trip every 3 weeks hard.  Thats what I had to do to get ipi- it got harder as the infusions happened as I got sick. I know every sevice station toilets on the whole route the last trip home we stopped at them all!
