my legs feel tingly

They feel as almost if they are asleep. Does anyone know what this could mean? Vitamin deficiency? Need more exercise?

Could be vitamin deficiency...b12 or D...maybe anemia

I'm only 8 days out and I also started to notice tingling sensations on my body, my arms, legs. I have no idea what it's from. But I started to walk a little more see if anything helps. :P

Is there a reason you are doing injections instead of sublingual supplement?

That's just what my Dr does and at $10 per 10 injections (10 months) can't beat that lol.

I'm always a fan of calling your doc w any questions...as far as I am concerned, that is part of post-op I paid for...maybe they will have a different suggestion for cause and treatment if tingling you are experiencing.

Could be your not getting enough protien. Your body takes protein from that large muscle groups first, which are the legs. Do you feel weak? Because it will also make you feel weak.

They dont really feel weak..only tingly when I touch them...I'm getting as much protein as I can...about 40g a day...I know that is not ideal but following my drs orders that's what is possible. Thanks for the advice. Ill keep you updated.

My doctor told me tingling is an indication of a vitamin deficiency.... Def check with your doctor!
