I also have stage 4 kidney cancer. I take Inlyta and Keytruda for treatment. I'm also scheduled to have my right kidney removed in February. Are you doing similar treatments?

I had my right kidney removed almost 2 1/2 years ago. About 2 months after it was removed, it spread to a lymph node near my lungs so I immediately started cabometyx (chemo) and nivolumab (immunotherapy). I’m still on the chemo and after about a year on the immunotherapy, I stopped since my cancer was in remission. It’s now 9 months later and my cancer is back with another spot near my lungs:(. Last week I started immunotherapy again. I’m upset, sad, mad and sad…and just sad since this is my story. I want the cancer to never come back and I’m so grateful it went away once. This is just the way it’s going to be. I’m a fighter and have a strong faith🙏. I pray for all of us…

@theresa2346, how are you doing on Inlyta and Keytruda?
