No options for other treatments as of now - the genomic testing favorable with the Prembo KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) so will continue on it till it no longer works - scans after 1 or 2 more infusions to see where stand and see if lymph node goes down any ; the neck lymph node still very noticeably swollen - arm bothering me - offer of pain med - but he has opted not to take for now - yesterday was a test of patience - everything was running 1 hour + behind - was there on time for the labs at 12:15 - dr. was to be at 12:45 did not get into to dr. till 1:30 and sat there till after 2 p.m before seen and a resident/intern 1st then reg. dr. checked out at 14:51 by summary sheet (2:51) was scheduled to be infusion at 1:45 p.m. so did not get out of there till 5 came straight home he did n ot want to stop get something to eat so rolled in about 7:30 did stop finally to get something cold to drink within 50 miles of home besides our lukewarm coffee... the wind was up so driving was a strain along with a vibration in the steering wheel means a call to the brother-in-law - labs/dr/infusion on 14th and radiologist on the 17th. Has put him on the list for any studies he might fit into - There is one other drug but he says more wicked side effects and as long as the prembo is working and he has had no side effects to speak of and this one
requires 2 treatments in the 3 week period

I don't think you are overreacting, @reibur1951. You are simply observant as well as caring! Good qualities in a friend.
