What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Hands After A Breast Surgery?
Yes. I had small breast excision surgery last week and my hands and feet have been tingling since then. Also today i had shortness of breath, was sweating, hands and feet were tingling badly, and felt like I was going to faint. What could that be from? Can hormones be out of whack after a small surgery?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think the tingling you are experiencing doesn't come from surgery or anesthesia. Anesthesia tingling would get resolved in 2 days. Also it is not hormonal in small excision. Maybe it's related to hypoglycemia. You should check for diabetes, sugar levels fasting and after meal.
Take care.
