Hi mil63,
Congratulations! That really is great news! Since everything is so good do you really want to continue with treatments? My husband had stage 4 lung cancer also. At one point due to almost dying from Keytruda and Chemotherapy side effects he stopped all treatments. The cancer doctor wasn't happy because he was losing the $25,000 per infusion for Keytruda. I don't know what Chemotherapy cost! The doctor actually got angry over my husband's decision. Needless to say, we changed cancer doctors. My husband lived for 14 more years without any treatment. He died at age 83 in 2024. I was so glad we had that time together. With the treatments we may not have had those years.

Analyze how the side effects are for you with the treatments you have had and research the ones that they want you to try. You are doing good now. Maybe you just want to give your body a little rest. Remember it's your decision. It's your body and your money.

Pray about it and ask for God's guidance. He knows what is best for you. After all, he made you and he can fix you! I'll say a prayer for you also.
I wish you the best!
PML
