Fuki, because you are so very worried about your husband, I am posting this link to you in multiple places. Please try to read it and see if it helps ease your worries at least a bit. It discusses immunotherapy and its successes.

Hi Fuki, we have already sort of met on the board when we talked about Opdivo, but I wanted to officially welcome you to WhatNext. I am glad you found us here. I am glad, too, that your husband is doing well on Opdivo. It has surely been a lifesaver (literally) for me. Like with your husband, the side effects are so easy to take, especially compared to chemo. Praise God for research and new treatments!

Looking forward to seeing you on the boards! Praying your husband continues to do well on the Opdivo!
