Very important to mention to your doctor. Let us know what they say. I did not want to take Prednisone, but I was prescribed 5 days of it and it made a world of difference!

The oncologist suggested that, since my thyroid was wiped out by the keytruda, that the hip and knee stiffness were related to the problem. I am now taking 150 mg(?) of levothyroxine..

great info here. Wednesday, My oncologist suggested physical therapy. Keytruda is working, positive news.

I would love to avoid any drugs. I am using over the counter meds at this time, but there is a limit to how much I want to depend on them. ,
