Immunotherapy Scheduling
I am totally new to Keytruda infusions, having only had one a week ago. I was under the impression I'd be routinely scheduled for these infusions every three weeks - on the same day of the week - but to date I've not gotten any information about my next one which ought to be in two weeks on a Wednesday. I've called scheduling twice but have not yet received notification. Is it common to not get notification of the date/time until a few days beforehand?

Thanks Bryan, Is folfox working for you? Is your cancer in remission? Do you have colorectal cancer?
@grammato3 my husband goes to immunotherapy every three weeks, at his appointment they give him the date of his next one, so he always knows and it’s the same day and time.
