I started to experience diarrhea 3 months after completing my 12 month cycle of opdivo (nivolumab) Treatment. Has anyone else had diarrhea following completion of treatment?

Hi – I am almost 10 months out since my last Nivo infusion(did a year for stage 3)- and started having diarrhea about 2 months ago. I never had it during treatment. I have an appt with Gastro next month but am hoping it eases before then. I thought was from stress from other things in my life, but maybe is related to the immuno.
thanks for bringing this up and best of luck to you – hopefully you are feeling well soon!

Hi all- turns out my diarrhea 10 months out from opdivo treatment IS colitis from the treatment.
Please if you get diarrhea, have it checked out.
I was just on dr- fatigue and figured it work itself out, but It doesn’t work that way. Thanks to Dana. farber for their dogged follow up to get me to see the light and go in!
On steroids now and hoping for recovery soon.
Be well all -bethL
