Eyes

Hello all - it's been a while since I've posed so a quick update. I took myself off of Herceptin last June ('14) after 10 years and no recurrence. I am still NED (praise God).
While on chemo I really had a lot of problems with my eyes watering. I haven't experienced that in a long time until recently. I am 55 years old and I realize some of the things happening to my body are because of age, but was wondering if anyone else has trouble with dry eyes. That's what they say is wrong and my eyes are over compensating by tearing so much.

Just wondering if it is a side effect from past chemo. Also wondering if anyone has had this problem how do you handle it? I drink water, use drops and take Omega 3's. Anything else I can do???

Nancy
