Treatment hold
Went in for my weekly treatment today and was put on hold due to my labs showing moderately high counts for liver function. I knew there was a possibility of delays like this but it just hits harder when it goes from “it’s possible” to “sorry, we need to get this under control”.
I’m doing Keynote 522 with Carboplatin, Paclitaxel and Keytruda, just started 4/23. So all 3 that first time, only Paclitaxel the 2nd and 3rd, and was scheduled to have all 3 again today. My oncologist started me on 20mg of prednisone 3x daily for 2 weeks and we will retest labs on Monday to see if I can start again next week.
Have any of you run into something similar and it all turned out fine? I guess I’m just looking for a little ray of sunshine to hold onto until I get some answers next week ☀️. So frustrating when I have not touched one drop of alcohol, taken zero Tylenol, and have been staying on top of keeping myself hydrated and eating consistently since my diagnosis in April.
