@merpreb Merry - Once the kidney issue is cleared they will do three infusions of Keytruda/Alimta and then rescan. Judging from the radiology report of the scan progress may be more than 75%. The report uses words like "eliminated" and "significant shrinkage". The lung nodule itself has decreased in size by over 50%. Right now we're balancing optimism with realism but the immunotherapy is working.
