I've been on Opdivo (nivolumab) for a few months now, and I wanted to share my experience. Opdivo is an immunotherapy that helps my immune system fight cancer by blocking certain proteins. I've noticed some side effects, but overall, it's been manageable. I wanted to hear from others who have experienced Opdivo and learn about their journeys. Specifically, I'm interested in hearing about any side effects you've had and how you've managed them. What has been the best advice you've received from your healthcare provider or peers? Has anyone experienced relief from side effects such as fatigue after incorporating specific lifestyle changes? Also, what preparation advice would you offer to anyone newly diagnosed and considering this treatment?
