Hi! My husband underwent neobladder surgery just over 12 months ago. Pathology showed he was stage IV, pT2b, N2, MO. He then did the Gemzar/Cisplatin chemo for 6 cycles, 3 weeks each, from August until January. He has done well (other than a bout with blood clots that they say the chemo caused, and scar tissue causing a stricture on his bladder...but those are all resolving now). All CTs, etc, have shown no recurrence at this point.
In the last 2 months he has noticed a HUGE change in his vision. Harder to see distances, everything he tries to read is blurry. He has an appointment with the eye doctor on Thursday. Our oncologist says it could all just be related to the chemo (but that ended in January and the trouble didn't start til May), that it is not uncommon. Has anyone else experienced vision problems that were related to the chemo, and will it go away? We knew about the "chemobrain" fuzziness, and it is better each day.
Thanks!
