Hi
I had a Latissimus dorsi (LD) flap.December 2020. Chemo and radiotherapy 2021. I still have numbness down my back and on the top of my arm. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and how long it takes for the feeling to come back.
take care
Anne
Hi Diamondgirl
I'm sorry to read of your numbness to arm and back. I am not from this group but by answering your post it will place it back at the top so that it is seen by more members. Do you still have a CNS, if so, she may be able to answer your question. The other option is to use the search button, which is the spyglass at the top on the green panel. If you would like to speak to someone, you could ring the Macmillan helpline. This is the link to contact https://www.macmillan.org.uk/about-us/contact-us
I hope you get some answers soon
