Hi everyone,
Hope that everyone is doing ok.
Just a quick question,my husband has had 2 sessions of Cemiplimab immunotherapy treatment for squamous cell carcinoma, he's started with a dry cough, saw consultant for his 3weekly follow up,she said he's got crackles in his lungs, despite him feeling absolutely fine, she's put him on 40mg prednisolone tapering down 10mg a week, but she's cancelled his next 2 infusions of Cemiplimab immunotherapy.
He did have a bout of Sepsis and pneumonia last September,but been fine since then.
He's had chest x-ray,that's all clear and also had a CT scan, apparently on looking at the CT scan that looks ok too .
Consultant has made new appointments for his immunotherapy treatment in 4weeks but also said, she can't guarantee she will continue his treatment, which is worrying, especially as the treatment is definitely working.
Consultant is saying it could be mild Pneumonitis?
Has anyone else has this condition,any advice gratefully received.
Kind regards,
Jen-gle
