Anyone stopped Keytruda due to side effects?

I had a severe reaction to Keytruda. It triggered Stevens- Johnson Sydrome that almost led to my death.
I live in Southeast England where the public health people that treated me as a 3rd degree burns sufferer brilliantly well did not have local expertise.
My skin was bleeding though layers of paraffin gel and organic mesh and two layers of clothes.
If there is anyone out there that I could share my and their experience with I would be greatful.

@billhopkins999 perhaps the moderator of this group can help? I wish you well.
