@kakalena thanks for sharing your experience with Stage 4. Did you need chemo as well or did you go straight to immunotherapy? Does the drug Opdiva help you with treating the lymph node or is there more needed now?

Waiting to hear on continuation of Opdiva. I started with 2 treatments of carboplatin and paraplegic chemo drugs along with the immuno drugs to knock the cancer down. Also, I have been receiving abraxane and gemcitabine since Feb. 2025. I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in January not a metastases of the lung cancer. Oncologist said that the silver lining was that it works on lung cancer too. It's very rough. Not sure what , if anything, it did to lung stuff.
