Subject: neuro symptoms??
HI,
I am currently seeing a patient in our local cardio-pulmonary ward and am
coinfused over some of the symptoms she has presented with.
She has an exacperated infection in her lung and is complaining of pins and
needles in her left hand fingertips. (all 5 fingers)
She also has slight weakness and lack of sensation in her left leg.
I thought it could be due to a lack of perfusion due to her shortness of
breath but was confused as to why it was unilateral.
Can anyone help???
