I had cervical cancer and had a radical hysterectomy 11/26/12. I ve had thigh weakness since then which I believe is from the extensive lymph node harvesting. There has been no recurrence thank God, but my thigh weakness is getting worse. I also started to have pettechiae on my forearms and sometimes small hunks of tissue will be missing on my hands or arms like some of my 80 year old patients. I saw a hematologist who couldn t find anything wrong, but it s getting worse . My coordination and balance are getting worse as well as my thigh weakness and I fell down the stairs this morning and a hunk of my calf opened up and I needed stitches . They checked my orthos, liver function, B12, thyroid, etc. I am seeing my MD this week. I have bipolar disease and they just started me on lithium last week and this has definitely contributed to the problem. I also have GERD, hiatal Hinayana, asthma, myofascial pain, venous stasis d/t I used to weigh 322lbs. I lost 175lbs 6 years ago from joining food addicts and eat 3 weighed and measured meals/day and avoiding flour and sugar. Can you give any suggestions of what could be wrong?
Hi, Your complaints are quite broad and does not appear to be related to the cervical cancer. I am also unable to understand that meaning of hunk being not there.? I personally feel A good internist examining you will be worth a shot. Furthermore, I am not aware of any option if this site allows any pictorial communication
