Dear Presley11

Atrial fibrillation can be a side effect from the immunotherapy and it is good that you have now recovered from this. Most side effects from the immunotherapy drugs can now be medically managed, the important thing is to inform your doctor or lung cancer nurse of any new or change in symptoms early.

If you wish to discuss anything you can call our free nurse led helpline number on 0800 358 7200.

All the very best
