Can somebody please help me find out why my left legs is tingly and feels colder then the other one.

i had BA six months ago sub muscle. I was a very fit late fifties who goes to the gym five times per week and teaches salsa. I have never really been ill in my life. But because I don't have much body fat I felt I looked too musculine. I used to be a size 36c. That is the size I am again. My body looks fab now but I'm not sure it is worth it. I have suffered from coldness in my hands and feet.  Now the coldness is easing in my hands but my left left tingles and then goes cold for a while. I don't feel ill, just worried about this tingling. I have had all the bloods, nerve detector test and MRI's and everything comes out perfect, but I'm not. The Dr's just shrug their shoulders and say that it's not connected. But I'm sure it is as it wasn't there before. Maybe somebody has had the same as me and they can help and advise. Also my hair thinned a lot. It has thankfully stopped falling out now.

yes, I hope so. But one thing for sure is that my BA looks amazing and has made such a difference to the way I look and feel. I've gone back to looking how I did in my youth. I can well understand how so many women are willing to take the chance these days. Take care.x

I believe almost all plastic surgeons have good intentions, but it is important to do a lot of research before undertaking any cosmetic procedure.

okay. will do. It seems the Dr's have no clue about all the side effects that can come with BA. I think the PS know only too well but don't mention it as it may effect business.

I'm really sorry you're going through this. Coming from a non-medical professional, it sounds like a circulatory or nerve issue. Glad you've had it all checked out, but that doesn't help when you don't feel good and have no answers! It's possible that the BA and this issue happening at the same time is a coincidence. But it does seem suspicious. Please let us know what you find out!
