I know...... my goal is 93

I had a very close friend with similar prognosis and none of it helped him

Immunotherapy is sort of touch and go at this point, as I understand it. If you’re one of the really lucky 15% or so, your tumors disappear or you go into complete remission. 50% or so see a reduction in tumor size and their lives are prolonged, measured in years. The rest see no benefit or even die from complications from side effects, such as the immune system attacking the thyroid.
