3 days agoStarting immunotherapy can feel overwhelming, but knowing what to expect can help ease some of the uncertainty. Many patients find that side effects vary widely from person to person, and the medical team will monitor closely and provide guidance throughout the process. This community has many members who have been through similar experiences and can offer valuable insights about their immunotherapy journeys.
