I've Had My 2nd Treatment.

I've had two treatments. The last one was 4 days ago. My doctor says we can expect to see some reduction in the tumors after the 2nd or 3rd treatment. The only side affect I've had is some itching. I'm not sure it is a side affect, because I had a lot of itching before Yervoy. I have 15 tumors (all just under the skin) except for one in my lung. They range from pea size to small egg size. I'm working full time, eating well, sleeping well, and not in pain. From time to time some of these tumors will become tender or have vague pain or burning sensation for a few minutes to a few days.

Hello, Sue! How are you doing? Have you had any improvement in the tumors, yet?

The typical side effects of Yervoy may possibly include diarrhea, nausea, fever, indigestion and itching.

Has anyone else been on this med that can chime in?
