        Biopsies are scary as we think the worse could happen.  It is better to know what is going on though.  Try some meditation techniques to keep you calm and do activities that get your endorphins going like running, biking, gym etc.

                      Hi I was on Keytruda and since they stopped it I have similar symptoms muscle aches, difficulty exercising.  It may be different as I was on immunotherapy.  Always report symptoms to your Dr. At times it seems like they are moving slowly to develope a plan for you..call them and ask them what is going on. Love and prayers
