Hi, i'm now 6 days post-op and feeling great but... over the last couple of days I have started getting pins and needles in my left thigh. I can be sat, laid on my back or front and my leg goes numb.

Is anyone else suffering with this or know what it could be?

Also my port wound is still bleeding very so slightly 6 days on, I spoke to the nurse 4 days PO and she said that it was pretty common (I was glued) but I thought it would have stopped by now. ( I am planning on ringing the nurse again but thought i'd ask on here first).

I'm not sure what causes the pins and needles, but I had the same exact thing happen. I'm now 6 weeks post op and don't have it anymore.

I wonder what it is! It's irritating more than anything. I woke up through the night and as I stood up the top of my leg was compleatly numb! I hit it and everything!

I'm going to see the nurse Thursday so I will ask her, see what she says. :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
