Removal of under are lymph removal side effect

Cainyp

Hi all

I hope this doesn’t sound silly I’m new to all this. I had an operation 2 weeks ago to remove breast cancer and margins on the right breast. They also removed all my under arm lymph nodes to right arm. had a drain for 5 days which has now been removed. Since the operation I suffer very bad vertigo. Just walking a little bit I feel so dizzy, even sitting down. I am on no medication now, and haven’t started my Chemo yet. I also get pins and needles in my Left leg a lot to the point it wakes me up. Does this sound normal?

I think you need to call your doctor today and report all your symptoms. The pins and needles & vertigo may be a sign of a blood clot. I would insist on being seen by a doctor.
