Haven’t gotten any responses to my post above, oh well. Another question, kind of related, is it known how long side effects of chemo may continue or pop up after you are no longer getting it? Besides the watery eyes - happening infrequently but still, maybe once a week - during chemo I got little bumps, kind of like blisters, on my hands, here and there, maybe 4-5 in different places. No pain, they just appeared on/off, would be raised, then fade away as treatment progressed. Now - received last chemo 6 weeks ago - got one more little bump after none recently. Hard to know things chemo might still be causing even when done with treatment.

@katieliz, it does sometimes happen that chemo will cause late side effects. Often watery eyes are a sign of dry eyes - I know this seems counterintuitive. Having dry eyes can cause watering and blurred vision. An eye specialist can confirm if your issue is dry eyes and prescribed eye drops.

Have you seen an opthamologist about your eyes?
