      Hi Ed ,

      Thank you so much for sending such a valuable resource!!! I am sure I will be referring to it throughout my treatment! I have already watched it once and Dr. Weber does such a nice job explaining everything with such good detail. I hope you are doing well with all that you are going through! Thank you so much for responding with such good information!:)

        Good to know about the transition happening fast! I will be repeating labs within a three week timeframe from my last labs. Hopefully it will all go well. Hope you are gaining clarity with all that you are going through and everything moves in a positive direction! Will be sending up prayers! Thank you so much for reaching out!:)

      Hi Steve33,

      My hyperthyroid symptoms were: I felt very tired, achy, weak, and had very low blood pressure. It was hard to tell if that was the Pembro or something else. My Dr. has me skipping a dose, so I hope that is ok. How did you fair the rest of your treatment? Did experiencing the overt thyroid symptoms so early on, set you up to experience even more overt side effects throughout IPI? I am worried about that. Thank you for sharing that you are NED! That really gives me hope!
