Numbness??

So has anyone ever had numbness on your abdomen after surgery?? I know I didn't have this back in 2009 when my lapband was first placed. This is 7 days post-op for the slippage and my tummy is still numb. Weird or normal?? Hmmm I'm glad I'm going to the Dr.'s today...kinda starting to concern me a bit.

I had three C-sections with my babies. The area where they cut and the area around my incisions have been completly numb for 10 years. The doc said the nerves were likely damaged/ cut and may eventually be back to normal but 10 years later...no such luck. No biggie just wierd feeling till you get used to it.

I too had a C section 11 year agao and I am still numb after that surgery. There has been a slight feeling return in a little bit of the area. However, most of it is still numb.
