      Has anyone had IV Hydration while doing yervoy treatment?

      I just received an email from my moms oncologist stating that she ordered hydration IV with her yervoy treatment due to abnormal creatinine test result.

          Sounds like they are worried about her kidneys. Good idea to have extra fluid during the infusion.
