        Hi Don,
        yes, I am on my 3rd infusion of Opdivo and developed a chest infection with cough after the second infusion that has remained persistent. To control it, as I was told it could be due to inflammation, I have used my Inhaler as well as taking Benadryl (non drowsy) a couple of times a day. Zirtech might work as well. Once I started taking Benadryl the symptoms subsided after a coupe pf days and I have managed to stay off Prednisone (so far) . I’m about a week in and it seems to be staving off the cough and my lungs feel better, fingers crossed.
        Dale.

          Thanks Ed,

          this is a good link describing therapy (also very important), my question is around surveillance/monitoring for recurrence. Appreciate the feedback however.
