No strength and watery eyes

Hi. Well done for finishing xx I finished the same chemo about 6 weeks ago and had a lumpectomy and nodes cleared last week. The chemo is so tough and in loads of different ways. I got really bad aches if I had been sat for just 5 minutes I would get up like a 90 year old. Did my really have the watery eyes. Don’t be hard on yourself I have a meltdown at least once a week. The whole thing is so scary. One minute bundling along with life and the next minute bang a grenade goes off. Xxx

Speak to chemo department. They’ve rung me 3 times in one week to check how I am. No doubt if I’d reported what you’re going through they would have had a solution.  Xxx

Hi I am 4 weeks finished chemo and my eyes were terrible; tears constantly streaming down my face.  My eyes are so much better now.  My legs are still stiff and painful every morning but get better as the day goes on x

I'm 4 and Half weeks after finishing docetaxel.  I was same eyes and legs. My eyes have been much better the last few days    I got some dry eye drops smd bought an eye heat.pad off amazon that warms up I the microwave.

I still have some low back.pain and leg pains but much improving 

Hope you feel better soon 

Xx

Aww gosh I thought I was the only one with watery eyes, docs prescribed me eye drops but not really helping, suppose I got to give it time. Never thought about eye heat pad I'll have to look at getting one of them. Thank you all for the advice everyone.

Sending hugs xx

I'm just so happy that I'm finished chemo, but it's still hard and yes I feel like old woman getting up. Just taking each day as it comes and each day my strength will come back slowly.

I struggled with watery eyes. BCN recommended eye drops for dry eyes. That sounded really strange to me but actually helped a lot. Definitely worth a go.

Yes does sound strange, eye drops for dry eyes when they clearly don't seem like they are. I'm using eye drops, think I've used about 3 different ones and a heated eye mask. Slowly I think they are now getting better but it's taking time. Thank you for the advice. X
