Thymoma Cancer B3 stage 4: starting immunotherapy

@nenners Welcome to Mayo Connect,
I understand that you have had numerous surgeries and chemo for thymoma. Has your thymus gland been removed?
In the NETs discussion, I have not heard of Opdivo being used previously. I hope that someone who is familiar with this treatment will post.
What type of symptoms do you have with this type of cancer, @nenners?

Yes full removal of thymus which was encapsulated it was feared that seedlings may have been spread by the biopsy? So I have had recurrent tumours on my pleura, chest wall and diaphragm. All done through the ribs which is hellish, now resultant is quite a lot of nerve
damage which causes some difficulties. No real pain from the tumours but now pressing on the lung and pericardium. N
