Stopping Chemoimmunotherapy Treatments

I finished my treatment even though I spent 4 times in the hospital and numerous times in the ER. But I’m not going through with the immunotherapy. I don’t trust what my doctors say. To them everything is a breeze which is a lie. And I don’t trust the drug they have to use.
I’m sorry you both are going through this. It’s a decision only your husband can make. And it’s a hard decision to make.
I didn’t know from your message if you were talking about the chemotherapy or the immunotherapy. I had 3 months of chemo and radiation and I will never go through it again. I don’t know about the immunotherapy since I refuse to go through it.
May God bless you both every moment in time, Frandy

@frandy my bf has stage 4 lung cancer he is 51. He did 6 rounds of chemo and it was keeping the cancer from spreading but he has one kidney and it was attacking his kidney. He was also doing immunotherapy with the chemo. Now he has just been doing immunotherapy but since the chemo has stopped he's been much sicker now and it seems like it's making it worse he doesn't want to do it any more and his cancer Dr is rude to us about it so we are get ready to talk to the lung Dr and palliative care to see what they can do just to help from here on out. I was surprised by the Drs attitude towards us about his treatment this is a personal issue and it's extremely difficult to go through this I was t expecting that from her.

My husband had 2 chemo meds and 1 immunotherapy med. He got all 3 on the same day. So I don't know which med caused him so much distress. He was to go every 3 weeks for one day. He made it through two treatments and decided to quit getting them. Since his last treatment on Jan 2, he has not been well. He has not been out of the house because he has terrible balance and has fallen 4 times within a week. A hospice nurse is coming tomorrow and I hope she can give us some advice as to what lies in the future. I hope you are doing well. I am in PA and it is 6 degrees outside. Good night to drink hot chocolate.
