Tarceva = Cornea damage???


Kellie

Recommended Posts

I'm on week 12 of Tarceva. I have moderate but manageable rash and dry skin. At 7 weeks I had an 80% reduction of my stage IV nsclc. I thought this was God sent and a second chance at life! Now I am having itchy irritated eyes that is affecting my vision, making it slightly fuzzy and cloudy. I had my eyes checked and the corneas are actually pitted with damage. The suspicion is that it will continue to deteriorate until I am blind as long as I stay on the medication. I've had other chemo and they all made me sick and I landed in the hospital with anemia and neutropenia. What do I do now???

:cry:
