Numbness In Upper Abdomen To Back Along Ribs, High Eye Pressure. History Of Breast Cancer And Carpel Tunnel Surgery In Wrist. Possible MS?

in last 2 years...had beast cancer with 6wks radiation....then carpel tunnel surgery in left wrist a few months ago.
Lots of faigue this last year that I figured was from the meds. .....so dr took me off my post cancer meds a month when he thought the meds might be giving me a problem with trigger finger in both hands after the capel tunnel suregery.
Now..... for the last few days....my upper abdomine has been numb on the upper left side and around to the back along my ribs. Also..... I've had high eye pressure for many years that dr has been monitoring. From what I read online for all the symptoms above....... could be ms?

Neurologist 's  Response
Hi,

The numbness in upper left abdomen with numbness along ribs,are consistent with impinged nerve (intercostal nerve along ribs).

It is unlikely to be ms (you meant multiple sclerosis)

You should consult Neurologist for further evaluation and management
