Advance directives are a powerful way to take control of healthcare choices. These documents allow you to outline preferences for medical care and specify end-of-life wishes. These documents can also be a way to appoint loved ones who you would like to help with these decisions, such as a healthcare proxy (someone to make decisions on your behalf, if you cannot). As cancer treatments can involve aggressive treatments and/or complex medical management, having advance directives ensures that your desires regarding treatment options and end-of-life care are clearly communicated.

Keytruda and squamous cell skin cancer?

I just finished 2 years of Keytruda (successful in keeping the cancer at bay), and have noticed an increase in squamous cell skin cancers.  I have had 5 this year (two of which required plastic surgery to remove).  My onc said she thought she had heard something about a correlation between immunotherapy and skin cancers, but wasn't sure.  Has anyone heard this, or do you know of any studies?

Cheers,

Chuck
