9208516443 I have been Keytruda since I started chemo and that was. May of 2024
I know it has helped because according to my scans my lungs are looking really good! My liver was too until my last time with my scan it showed that I had all these new little tumors in the liver. My dr said that she was going to give me the harshest chemo that all I will do is be sick and throw up all day long . Sure will give me this for like forever until I die it ii tell her I have had enough ! I have only had Keytruda for the past 3 months for sure no chemo with it . I don’t understand because the side effects re the same ones I get with chemotherapy. So why she took me off I donnot understand! Now I just got over a urinary tract infection and then the gave me stronger antibiotic because I got cellulitis. Now could someone please tell
Me if my doctored like she just knows what she is doing or is it for her research. She is a research Dr and that is probably why I don’t understand her and she never really explains anything .?at lest the Drs physician will show me the scans and try to explain to the best if her knowledge to me
