      Congrats Dick! I'm 4 weeks on Zelboraf as of today. I must admit i'm a bit scared still but i'm taking my pills like clock work. I already did the Ipi but it did not work as far as we know. Keep up what you are doing!

      Are you on a steroid as well? My thrush was caused by my dexamethasone.

      Question for the Zelboraf users out there. I just received my 2nd shipment of Z and the 2 batch does not distinguish between "AM" and "PM" on the pill bottles. The first batch clearly indicated one was for "AM" and the other was for "PM". Has this happened to anyone else? Does it matter? Help!

      Hi Mike,

      I am a patient. I am currently being treated at Dana Farber. I completed Yervoy about 3 weeks ago but they did not see anything promising so we jumped right to Zelboraf (I'm 11 days in now).

      Mike,

      Is there a reason they are giving you 8 infusions of Yervoy? I was told 4 was the max? Let me know what you think. Thanks. Bryan
