I was on Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for 5 years for Colorectal cancer. I was diagnosed in Oct. of 2014 after other treatments of Chemotherapy Radiation and Targeted therapies, I was put on Keytruda in April of 2017. Last dose was Jan. 2022.

I remember being extremely fatigued at the beginning but I had been doing other treatments prior to that so I wasn't sure if it was from the Keytruda. I know that everyone has different symptoms from medications that they take so it is always imortant to tell your doctor and care team nurse how you are feeling.

Thank you very much for your note. My oncologist says that fatigue could certainly be from the infusions. Everyone does react differently. I am reassured by your answer.
