Eyesight/Vision changes with Herceptin???
Have any of you found that your eyeglasses or contacts prescriptions have changed as a result of using Herceptin and/or other chemo meds? Mine changed back when I was on Carbo/Taxol/Herceptin, but I feel like my vision hasn't returned to normal. I have been on triple dose Herceptin for the past year.
