What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Arms After A Hysterectomy?
Hi I had a Robotically assistant vaginal hysterectomy about 1 and a half weeks ago. I saw my doctor yesterday just to check on things. She said everything was healing well and to take it slow. Later that day I passed out while out for a drive with my husband. I came around feeling weird and tingling in my arms and hands. Soon after I felt more like normal. Just wondering if this happens often. Or should I get checked out.

Hi,
In my opinion, you should definitely undergo cardiac reports because sudden passing out with tingling in the arm can be due to coronary artery disease (CAD).
So consult the cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, ECG, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If any of the above reports is abnormal then you may need coronary angiography.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
