Has Anyone Experienced Finger Numbing From Swollen Lymph Nodes Under Armpit
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have significant lymph node growth under left armpit. My left hand fingers started numbing. My Dr. Is not sure yet if related. I am getting a PET scan this month so my Dr can assess treatment. Not sure if PET is able to confirm that symptom.

Thank you for the replies. I will check out a neurologist too. I am not on treatment yet. Maybe the numbing is unrelated to the lymphoma.

I think you may like to see neurologist too. Cancer treatments cause nerve numbing. Happened to me during treatment. Oncologist gave me a med that helped me during that time. It is better now, but now and then get symptoms. I just throw my mind away from it as it is not that severe.

I think my neuropathy in my fingers and feet are largely caused by the chemotherapy. No one has confirmed this for me. But I never had numb fingers before. I have no lymph nodes under my armpits enlarged. Just all over my body! I am clear for now, and I’m very thankful.
