Sounds like an immune response to me.  I ran a fever after each immuno-embo at Jeff, which was seen as a good sign.  Not sure if the same can be said for C-MET.  I might be jumping into Sato's new C-MEK trial (Phase I).  I'll know after my next visit in a couple weeks.

My Ipi reactions haven't been bad at all.  For a while I had none and wished for something, just for some evidence.  I got a full torso rash, but it wasn't awful, and I took predisone for a few weeks.  That dose is down to half strength as of Monday, going to quarter next week, unless my skin flares up again.  Ipi also destroyed my thyroid, so that's a daily dose of synthroid for life, but I've seen no side effects from that.   Sato is gonna add testosterone injections next, because my level has pretty much bottomed out, but is that from the Ipi or from being 47?  Hmmm…

Ditto — I didn't lose my eye.  OM mets diagnosis was a liver biopsy for me.

Granted, I'm something like 20/200 in the treated eye, so you wouldn't want me flying a helicopter near your house, but my huge blind spot is an excuse to ignore people standing to my right, so it can come in handy.

This June, I'm having a cataract out of the same eye — induced by the rasiation, so we knew it was coming.  Considering the other procedures I've had, this one should be no biggie.  Kinda like I look forward to PET scans now as good naps.
