Twinges Near Left Breast, Tingling Fingers, Weakness. History Of Hypothyroidism, Allergies. Cause Of Worry?
I go through bouts of experiencing slight pain twinges in and around my left breast . Sometimes fingers tingle, and I feel some weakness. I am 69 female, teach yoga , go to gym 5 - 7 times a week on the treadmill, and do weights. I am in good health, only prescription meds I take are for hypothyroidism and xyzal for allergies. Do I need to worry about this?

Hi,
I would suggest you-
- To get the thyroid function tests reassessed. Hypothyroidism does create mild muscle spasms.Some times the medicine doses need adjustment.
- You said you are a weight lifter, I doubt strain to your cervical spine causing the tingling in fingers/ twinges around the breast.
Thank you.
