      Thank you dear Chris,

      unfortunately drugs like ipilimumab is not available in our country and only option is to get them yourself in other world. As far as IPI is the only advanced drag for me my doctor prescribed it correctly and this is my job to get it thoughout the planet 🙂 Catherine is so helpful to me, I got a lot of useful support from her. For the time being I culd not find any trial with IPI + Pd-1, that is considerred the best response having option for melanoma patients. Traveling to USA and to be there as long as needed is not problem as I have valid VISA.

      So I'm under decision to receive IPI seperately. 

      Thanks once again
