Parestesias in the arm, face and neck

Iara248820

I started radiotherapy last week , just 5 sessions. I have some parestesias ( I feel like pins and needles in my skin, some tingling) in my right arm, right part of my face, neck and also my left arm.

The surgery was done about 8 weeks ago. Two lymphe nodes were removed and were negative. I am receiving 3 d radiotherapy.. Sorry for English. I is not my first language.

Has somebody experienced these symptoms?

They feel like pins and needles but very soft. Tingling. Not just in the right arm, but also in my face and a little bit in my left arm. I am worry

Thanks for your quick answer!!! I find this place comforting. Luckily the paresthesias are almost gone. Just a little bit in my hands. Today was my 10 th day of radiation therapy. I have to do a total of 28 sessions.

Now my breast started to be swollen and I had a pain while the were doing the radiation . Hope you are doing well. For what I see you are already with hormone therapy
