Brief Answer: Lymphedema of arm. Gentle exercise, elastic sleeve Detailed Answer: Hello, I have gone through your query and understand your concern. You suspecting whether you have Lupus or not? You should suspect lupus, if you have any of the following symptoms like fatigue (tiredness), weight loss and a mild fever, joint and muscle pains, Joint stiffness, rashes on sun exposed areas and face, depression, anxiety, anemia. etc. These are all the usual symptoms of lupus. Further as you think of lupus is a immune system disease. It is a disease of autoimmune system. ie. your body produces antibody against your own body cells or other parts of cells. It is not a lymphatic systemic disease. You have mentioned that you have undergone BREST SYRG.BOIPSY. What does this mean? Breast surgery or Breast syringing? why you have done this? for breast cancer? Please explain ABC history? C4 and ABD Positive? What are these tests and what for you have done these? As you had a breast surgery or syringing, this may cause the lymphedema of the arms and upper limbs. This can be controlled by gentle exercises and avoiding lifting heavy weight, wearing a elastic sleeves etc. Waiting for your reply and answers.
