Could it be related to Nivolumab ? Has anybody else on Opdivo /Keytruda experienced similar memory loss related symptoms.
Occasional muscular pains are still there.
But overall, I am working at maybe 60 to 70% of my normal working.
Thank God for where I am today.

Hi Henry,
I am on Keytruda since September. I too, have a terrible memory now but I hadn’t related it to Keytruda since I underwent chemo as well in the last yet and a half. I don’t notice the memory lapses just with names and dates, it is with words as well. I am often stuttering waiting for the proper word to come to me while talking. This is challenging for me since oral communication has always been easy for me.
And saw your remark earlier in the thread about transitioning from the acceptance of dying to now living life. Working on that one now too. Going from expecting to die within a couple of months to thinking I might be NED soon causes quite the mental gymnastics. Received terminal disability benefits last September and am now thinking of returning to work part time next September! Sure am glad to be where I am at!
