      I'm a thankful 5 year survivor of thyroid cancer (papillary carcinoma).  After radioactive iodine treatment didn't work I underwent external beam radiation. 

      I've gotten use to the limited mobility in my neck, soreness in my left arm and dry mouth.  To me these are small things.  Recently my left arm and fingers have began to tingle like they're asleep. I change positions and it goes away but then comes right back.  This morning I noticed a small round dark spot kinda like a bruise on my left arm.

      Im wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar.

      thanks
