My husband just finished his 3rd dose of yervoy. He had very little reaction to the first two doses. After the third dose he is unable to function. He has severe stomach discomfort, diarrhea, vomiting and can't sleep. He also isn't eating much. Tthese symptoms have been going on for almost a weak. How long do they last?
Has anyone has the following side effects from taking yervoy?
