      Hi Anon,

      It's hard to answer your question without knowing what kind of infusion you had?  I routinely had leg pain with GM-CSF and had joint pain with IPI (Yervoy). Tylenol mostly took care of it.

      What are you taking?

        Hi Julie, your response is very timely! I was just logging on to see if anyone had joint pain while on Yervoy! So thank you.
