      Hi Emi,

      REading your reply made me so happy for you & your husband.  I have a sister who's currently battling Melanoma stage IV.  She's done IL2, had liver surgery, lung surgery and now going with the yervoy/opdivo combo.  She lost her husband to melanoma two years ago so you can imagine how incredibly hard her life has been these past two years.  

       

      I am writing you to see what side effects your husband experienced for the first round of treatment. I'm well aware that each person has different side effects but wanted to see how soon his  kicked in. (hours, day, week, next round, etc).  The more we know the more she will feel at ease as to what to possibly expect.  I'm her primary caretaker and I  want to know as much as I can to help she and her boys deal with this afwul disease. 

       

      Really appreciate your feedback.

      Hi Ashley! 

      I hope your'e doing well.  So happy to hear your amazing news regarding your NED STATUS.    My sister is fighting Melanoma and is stage iv.  she starts her yervoy opdivo combo in a few weeks.  I wanted to find out from you what side effects you had in the first round and how soon they started (hours, days, weeks).   I know everyone has different reactions but the more we know the more she will feel at ease.  She unfortunately lost her husband 2 years ago from Melanoma so you can imagine how incredibly draining all this is for she and her two boys.  

       

      Information is power.  

       

      Thanks so much,
