      He gang…Because of side effects to liver (elevated enzymes), we canceled my last Yervoy treatment. We are now looking at a ERK inhibitor trial. My Onc wants to wait a least 30 days before we start in order for meds to get out of my system. My last scan still showed some progression. He wants to make it is "true progression" before we start. Fortunately, the office is less than 15 minutes from my home.

      Hope everyone is doing well in their fight. Keep on keeping on!
