        Unfortunately, I have to agree with the others.  My endocrinologist says it's permanent.  🙁  I'm on daily hydrocortisone.

              Yes, but if they are super severe, definitely call your doctor.  I am in the E1609 clinical trial, and I just finished my 4th dose of Yervoy.  Make sure you're drinking lots of water, too!

                    I am in a clinical trial for ipi, (I'm "only" stage IIIC) but my understanding is that you can absolutely do multiple rounds!  I believe that each cycle is 4 treatments every 3 weeks, so 12 infusions total.  If that's wrong, someone please correct me!
