<human>: Hello doctor, i have had implanon for almost a year now but recently i have had pain in my arm and numbness on my fingers of my other arm too and i have been lightheaded and my heart seems to beat faster. I would like to know if this is normal or is my body not liking the implanon. Thank you!!
<bot>: Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor! I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to inflammation or to implant adverse effects. I recommend consulting with your doctor for a physical exam and performing some tests to investigate for the possible causes: - a resting ECG-some blood lab tests (complete blood count, muscular enzymes, PCR, sedimentation rate, blood electrolytes, thyroid hormone levels). If all these tests result normal, you should consider those symptoms related to implant adverse effects. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes,
