Hi all. I'm new here so I'm sorry if I'm not following the correct etiquette. I hope everyone's having as good a day as they can be. I am currently suffering with severe dry eyes, and, having spoken to an optician several times, and done a bit of research, I think it may be because of the nivolumab treatment I am currently having for my kidney cancer and metastases. A quick Google search shows me that dry eyes have been associated in studies looking at immunotherapy drugs like the one I am using, and with the help of my optician I am trying anti-inflammatory eyedrops which act to counter the stimulation of the immune system from the cancer treatment.
I would be very keen to hear whether anybody else has had a similar problem with drugs in the same family as nivolumab, and whether anybody has found anything to ease the symptoms. I'm prepared to give most things a try:-)
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.
