Opdivo. We go in wed. next week for infusion. Will discuss continuation with the oncologist. This stuff is super expensive. I was going every 2 weeks for a year, then protocol went to every 4 weeks and double the amount infused. I was quoted $15K per treatment when it was every 2 weeks. Filled out some paperwork, and the mfg. is paying for my treatment. The difference is it takes a little longer to get to max out of pocket $$$$.
I gripe about the insurance co. but I would be screwed without them. Probably be dead by now if I didn't have it.
On the upside, I have absolutely no side effects from Opdivo.
