Hi Mesoman

Im saddened to hear your prognosis, it is certainly a lot to deal with in every way.

Im on a very similar immunotherapy treatment called Cemiplimab. There is a long list of dreadful side effects but I get just 2 fatigue and an itchy rash. I have a fairly good quality of life at the moment. This class of drugs is not like chemotherapy where you can feel dreadful for most of the time between treatments.

If this treatment can double your life expectancy Id say it is a good bet and worth trying. If you really cannot tolerate it then you can always discontinue the course. You will be well looked after with 24 hr access to help if you need it. Also most of the side effects, if you get any, can be managed quite well.

Give it a go you have nothing to lose and may be pleasantly surprised. And see in New Year 2027.

Also take up their kind offer and have a chat with the nurses.
