      Hi Ali, I am going to start my first treatment of IL-2 in 2 days. My Dr. tells me that I am going to have to take 15 doses in 5 days then I can rest at home 2 weeks. The only things I was told as far as side effects are that I will experience the worst flu I have ever had. Is there anything you can share with me?

      Thank you,

      Lindsey
