Hi.
Today I should have 3rd dose of nivo/ipi but one result of my blood too high. A get Prednizon 80mg per day to back to normal results of my blood. But I need to wait for 3rd dose. I worry because treatment worked very good on me, and now I scare that tumors will be grow up again… someone have similar sytuation?
Please reply
I am not a patient (or a doctor) but I know of several others who have had to delay treatment for a variety of issues. It doesn't seem to have a big impact on outcomes, from what I have heard. I don't think we have hard data yet, but reports have been published of people who only received one round of ipi in the ipi/nivo combination and still benefited. Clearly the best is to stay with the protocol, but from what you have said I wouldn't worry too much.

The pharmacist that mixes my drugs has told me these drugs stay active in your system for some time after you received it.
