8 days agoHello ladies, I am currently on Taxol,Ketruda and Avastin. Unfortunately the Keytruda killed my pancreas therefore I am now diagnosed with Diabetes 1. Has anyone else have this happen? Thanks in advance for any response.

8 days agoKeytruda can sometimes affect the pancreas and lead to type 1 diabetes as a side effect, though this is not common. It's important to discuss this development with your medical team to ensure proper diabetes management alongside your cancer treatment, and connecting with others in this community who may have experienced similar challenges could provide valuable support and insights.
