OP "OCF Canuck, across the pond" Senior Member (100+ posts) Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 153 | Well folks, I'm day 9 post second chemo and while yesterday was pretty ok, the evening saw the diarrhea catch up with me and I'm using Imodium for that and feeling fairly rough.
Rather hoping my Oncologist has something 'better' to suggest following a CT scan within the next ten days. He's mentioned an anti-PD1 trial, but I've gone looking and these don't seem as promising as I might have hoped.
We shall see
