      Hi,
      I was wondering if you decided to try Keytruda? I have a dear friend who started in May. She was dx in April w LM . She’s having many neurological side effects from the disease. I’m interested in yours, or anyone’s journey. She is suffering from confusion, unsteady gait, inability to verbalize thoughts, nausea, vomiting, headaches, pressure with the eyes and lethargic. This is getting worse and she is only on her 2nd infusion. The Dr.s say it may get worse before it gets better and they will not know if it is working until the 4th month. Any information would be helpful.

      Thank you!
