Re: immunotherapy- dangerous side effects

I found the New York Times article very interesting. I appreciated what Amy shared that the doctor at Sloan Kettering had to say about immune therapy treatment. Even though I am 10 years out and feel fine, I try to keep up with new developments in cancer research and breast cancer treatment specifically. I survived the dreaded old school adrimyacin and taxol. Here's to all the good people on our site for the best treatment possible.
