    I started in July 2016 with 7 mets between both lungs. Had a scan on 12/29/2016 which came back near complete resolution so another scan on 3/16/2017 came back the same with 1 met under 2mm in size and no new mets. I would have liked the word "near" to be gone but I went from 3 down to 1 and it is really small. Will continue the nivo every 2 weeks until further notice. I have been on the ipi/nivo nivo alone for 9 months now and still have 5 side effects but still working full time.

      Thanks for sharing your good news!  Hoping you can take the word 'near' out after your next scan.

      Going… going….. what comes next? Fingers and toes crossed for that GONE! "Near" resolution is pretty close to perfect though! 😉  Congrats!
