Husband needing prayers-please
My husband went for his 4th
Opdivo
treatment today was not able to do. Now in hospital with infection in both lower lobes. Also heart rate is out of control due to cancer pressing on heart. He will be having a heart procedure in the morning. He sure could use some prayers.

Cancer sucks!
So now started
Opdivo
I have had 3 treatments they are doing a study to give the hour treatment in 30 minutes. I seem to be able to tolerate so far. Have had to deal with life's new norms. Well as of last week I now have an ENT (ears,nose,throat) doctor..... I felt like I had laryngitis not!

Opdivo
They want to start
Opdivo
. The reviews are horrible that I have read. Anyone have experience with this med? I wonder if we need to get second opinion not just because of the suggestion of this med but they stated he can't get anymore chemo either.

My Dear Sweet Husband has Lung Cancer
After chemo, and radiation to his brain and chest, he started
Opdivo
.
Opdivo
did a great job reducing his tumors, but then attacked his lungs. He is currently off treatment and on a huge dose of steroids. He is being treated at Cancer Treatment Centers of America.

Nivolumab (Opdivo)
My oncologist is going to try Nivolumab (
Opdivo
). Has anybody else experienced a similar history? While we all are different, I'd like to hear about the experience. It would be wonderful if the fatigue eased up. Thank you, John
