Thank uou! I am so happy it has worked for you! I am at Sloane Kettering in nyc. They are going to do a biopsy to doublecheck bc the immunotherapy has also caused pneumonititis in the lungs msg. Fingers crossed. They will then decide to ho back on cem or other types of treatment. I was on a clinical trial for neoadjuvant therapy with chemo and cem and it had worked great, clear margins in major maxillectomy. So may twists and turns with surgical complications and now this. If ok may reach out if u think extra immune boosters may help?

You’re lucky to be at a top notch medical center. If your cure is out there they will find it. My Mayo Clinic oncologist thinks my great response to Cemiplimab may be due in part to all the immune enhancements I have done for these years. Other doctors may not be so supportive of trying complementary treatments along with traditional. Since we get cancer because our immune system is not recognizing and destroying cancer cells when they develop, strengthening the immune system makes sense. But utilizing treatment that does not have adequate testing for the medical profession to support it is the realization. None of us know whether or not these things help, but if they don’t hurt, I’m willing to chance it.
