Nephrectomy 2 1/2 months ago now Im getting ear and eye infections?

I had my left kidney removed due to RCC, now I may be overreacting but since then Ive developed Labyrinthitis (viral infection of the labyrinth in the ear) in my left ear which really sucked and caused me to stumble around to one side like I was drunk. That cleared up with meds. Now, about a week after having gotten over that, I woke up with my right eye swollen and its barely open at all due to the severe swelling, probably conjunctivitus. I havent had EITHER of these problems BEFORE the nephrectomy, and I realize theyre rather common viri to obtain, but Ive never gotten them before. Could there be a relation somehow to the surgery?

you are right about inner ear infection, that is random. so is an eye infection, most pink/red eyes are viral too, but let your doctor see it at least, likely just a coincidence, good luck
