Ironically, the treatment i receive now, was actually originally designed for Breast cancer. Keytruda.
It just also happens that Hodgkins cells express cells that can be manipulated by a PDL1 blocker.

Cancer treatment breakthroughs are coming at a rapid pace, and have advanced so much in the last 5 years.
It wasnt till like may of 2017 that keytruda even became approved for Hodgkins.

Unfortunately, not all types of cancers get equal funding, and unfortunately, most is spent into breast cancer.

at my clinic, the breast cancer has its own floor, and the waiting rooms and dr visit rooms are beautiful.
So not all of this money donated it being pushed into actual research and cures




RedRaider mailed me Bert last february. Cant wait to find someone to pass him off too.



The only thing ive changed in the last few months is i atttempt to eat more greens. and i drink detox and turmeric teas everyday now
Keep fighting man. Get on some high dose CBD Oil or Reishi pills.

Thank you everyone for your prayers and support.

Unfortunately, since Keytruda is so new to lymphoma, they dont really know much about long term side effects.



But it is important to note. What seems to be the common theme, is either your body tolerates Keytruda, or absolutely does not.
Due to that fact, you have a lot of people with very good sucess, and then some people have to immediately stop, because Oncs dont really know what long term sides are.



My onc did mention he has multiple lymphoma patients who have been on keytruda/opdivo for 2-5 years with no effects. And studies are showing that if these patients are taken off, and their cancer relapses, then running keytruda or opdivo is effective again.

So right now, my onc is just gonna keep me on keytruda as long as its working, and as long as it puts me in remission, or completely stablizes the disease.
