        To clarify, she is stage 4, fully met into bone and more.  Yervoy and intermediary immunotherapy did not work.  She started Merck study last week.

              I see you haven't posted in awhile?  How is your husband doing? 

              My sister-in-law in going through almost the same situation.  Severe bone mat and severe related pain.   The doctors just keep upping the pain med strengths. 

              Its killing her husband (my brother) to watch her go through this.  He feels like the doctors are not doing everything they can for the pain.  A trip to the ER just finds them back home with "try this, or try that".
