      Today was my 24 week scan from ipi. Keep in mind, they were fabulous with 50 percent shrinkage and some even disappeared. Now at 24 weeks, they’ve all marginally grown and even my dr. seems confused. My lymphocytes were high during the ipi and then the day I got my 16 week scan and results, the lymphocytes went down to 0.53. Today, they are back to 1900 which my dr. feels a reintroduction of ipi would be the best idea.

      I know if you’re a responder to ipi, you have a good chance of it working again. Has anyone experienced this? does anyone know why something would be so great and then all of a sudden stop suddenly.
