      My father's melanoma spread to his lungs, multiple lung nodules that are now causing him shortness of breath quite easily.   He just started a clinical trial of an inhibitor and and anti pd-1 drug.  I'm worried about his lungs failing before the immunotherapy starts to (hopefully) do it's job.

      Has anyone had a similar diagnosis?  

       

      Thank you!

          My wife had this and most lung nodules do not grow that fast I would think that you. Have plenty of time for immunotherapy to work. Hope this helps.
