      My husband has been fighting since July 2015. So everything has went pretty good , until September 26th . He was feeling quite right , arm and leg felt heavy. Went to primary, was sent right to hospital, found brain metastases. Fast forward, he has radiation and started keytruda. Completed 2 keytruda, the third will be today. But he had a fell last Friday, feel to his knees and could not walk . So here we are back at hospital still not walking good so not ready to release. Dr wants to add vemurafenib and cobimetinib with keytruda. He has been on mekinist and taflinar prior before brain mets. Wondering everyone’s thoughts on keytruda with vemurafenib and cobimetinib? Anyone done this combo and luck with brain mets? I would appreciate any words on this. I truly am at a loss . Thank you
