I would be grateful for any input about immunotherapy for lung cancer, side effects and signs of progress.

Research continues to indicate that CBD oil (marijuana, THC) interferes with immunotherapy. See this related discussion:

Solid tumor in the top left and small one in the lower left. They ablated (cooked) the large solid tumor before I started the 2 rounds of immunotherapy. They removed the top lobe and did a wedge thing on the lower lobe about 4 weeks after my last immunotherapy. I also had a couple of small tumors in my right lung but they disappeared after the immunotherapy. The only reason the doctor cut out my top lobe was to prove that the "Ablation & Immunotherapy" worked and stage 3a can some day be treated outpatient.

Were these tumors multifocal? That is independent primary or metastasis? Or both? Lymph nodes involved?
