Hi Ceibach

I am not sure if you meant to reply to another person on the forum or not. It is encouraging to hear that your husband has done well on the Keytruda and hope he has recovered well from surgery.

If you or your husband would like to discuss anything you can email ask the nurse at lungcancerhelp@roycastle.org or call our nurse led helpline number on 0800 358 7200 Monday to Thursday 0900-1700 and Friday 0900-1600

All the very best
