Hi, I was just wondering if anyone who has been on trastuzumab emtansine had side effects of a swollen eye and if so how did you deal with it. My eye is swollen inner upper lid.

Thanks

  • Hi Unlucky39

    While I didn't have a swollen eye I noticed that you haven't had any answers so I thought I'd reply to you to move you to the top of the discussion.  Hopefully someone will be along shortly with an answer for you.

    Best wishes

  • Hi.  Sorry to hear.  I had the most terrible eye pain and soreness and dryness.  I was given drops at the hospital which didn’t help.  After several weeks I eventually made an appointment with an ophthalmologist.  He was really helpful and was able to examine the eyes properly.  I had scratched one of my eyes and they were overall very dry.  He gave me lots of advice on using hot towels and Hylo forte eye drops which are really good.  I wish I had gone sooner and I would urge you to go and have your eyes checked.
