      Thanks a lot Mark. I wish you good health too.
      All this is difficult for patients, but just as difficult for their families.
      I just wanted the metastases to be stable. The reduction comes as a bonus!
      I still can’t believe it, nor can I relax. The cough is getting better. Tomorrow the father will receive Nivo number 5.

      It means a lot of experience and advice to all of you. My dad has lung pain I don’t know if due to VAT surgery or metastases.He is very skinny and avoids eating everything I said.I’m afraid they’ll lose more weight from immunotherapy.
      I know they will listen to me if I say I talked to you.
      So thank you very much everyone!!!

      Im sorry to hear about your side effects but I am also glad it is nothing serious. So you think there is no need to cut out meat and wine completely?

      My father has literaly gone vegan because he thinks it will worsen his state. I, on the other hand, think that because of the terapy he needs to have a variety in his diet.

      I wish you all my best.

      HVALA VAM MNOGO.
      Bas ste mi pomogli. Nadam se da ce Opdivo biti dovoljan jer su manji nezeljeni efekti od kombinacije sa drugim lekom.
      Ovde se izgleda ostaje noc u bolnici kada se prima infuzija sto me plasi zbog situacije sa virusom.
      Nadam se da ste Vi dobro.
      Pozdrav iz Bg i za vas i za cerku i svako dobro vam zelim.

      Celeste, thank you very much.
      I feel so loonely because in my small country no one has survived this disease. I read the positive outcomes only on this forum. I am afraid of a lot of negative effects of therapy, but I am most afraid of melanoma.

      I hope that opdivo therapy will have an effect on my father’s metastases in left lung.
      Best wishes to all

      Dear Mark,

      THANK YOU.
      I do a search here (I read posts every day for 3 years :)), but did not find finally whether received for 2 weeks or 4 weeks.
      In my country ( Serbia) there are not many treatment options. I am happy that he received immunotherapy at all.
      5 metastases in lung – very scary and bad + risk of covid.
      All the best to everyone here!

      Ana
