Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 56 year old female friend has been experiencing full body aches that she describes as throbbing. she has lost 20 to 30 pounds in several months. she was obese. she has a history of diabetes and renal cancer. kidney was removed several years ago and has been faithfully seeing her oncologist.
This problem can be due to: Neuropathy from diabetes. Possibility of tumor recurrence again. Both problems can cause pain in the body. Rapid weight loss is one of the signs of cancer. I suggest you get her checked by a physcian. She may need necessary investigations so that appropriate drug therapy can be started.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar,
Dentist
