        Liver looks like it is bad now .
        I am off the drug while I detox.
        No more itching, but I need to eat cholestyramine to keep liver under control.
        I think this drug is not for me and it I stay on it I would die

            Hello, My name is Bob Crosswell
            I live in Ft Worth ,TX
            I have Metastatic Melanoma

            I took my first Yervoy infusion a week ago.
            I had Lots of swelling in the neck and throat and could not talk .
            One vocal chord stopped working.
            I could not breathe due to swelling.
            I went in hospital for five days, finally swelling went down.
            I can only talk in a whisper.
            Rash in back and waste where elastic is tight.
            right leg prickly stings all the time.
            I have a fentnyl patch for pain, lymph nodes near kidney swollen
            My right leg turned purple from ankle to knee.
