      My dad had his second infusion of Opdivo this past Wednesday. Thursday he started feeling really off balance and dizzy, especially in the first part of the day. This went on for three days. Today Sunday, he is completely fine again. Has anyone experienced dizziness from your infusions? Also, if you have side effects from one infusion does that mean you will keep having them after every infusion?

          I had 25 infusions of Opdivo. I felt wonky a day after each treatment during the first few but I got into it my side effect diminished.
